The reasoning behind this? It was an inside joke for my dad's birthday card.
Anyway, didn't want to put this one up up but in fact a portrait of my nephew. Never mind.
Simple pencil drawing on canvas paper.

Hey, I remember seeing that when I came round [shortly before the end of the summer]
It's cute. So is the dog. But its face proportion looks slightly out. Did you copy that dog from your own memory> Is it a beagle or something. Looks like one.
And the explanation for the beer can? I can't read the lettering on the front...
I notice that the colouring is juddered about- but I completely understand. Canvas paper does that with any form of media [excluding material i.e. for collages]
That why when you paint you paint in layers to stop the canvas purposely showing through
Otherwise being slightly out of focus, and seemingly faded, I think you did a very good job *Gives cookie ^,^*
I love the dog's doleful look.

Can see what you mean. But if you mean the cheek, it's meant to look flattened, as its against the ground.
It was meant to be a spaniel of some sort or other.
