Guess who this is?!

Bella and Basil, respectively, are finally having some time on the first floor after thoroughly inspecting the second floor. I still won’t let them in the basement for fear I’ll never find them in the chaos down there, but they weathered their first journey to the new land well. They are each a little timid when it comes to moving into new spaces for the first time, so I’m cautious not to overwhelm them, and my downstairs can be overwhelming. I tell everyone who visits that I am in “full warehouse mode” and stacks of bins and things are everywhere.

They did need to be coaxed down by me and Bean, but after a few times of running up and down the steps they were exploring, little by little, sometimes together, most times not, then eventually playing.

If you’d like a print of this sketch the original is still available, and I have prints on paper and canvas on Portraits of Animals.
