This is Smokie (now Basil) and Bella in their daily chase around the house. Working in my studio I heard the thundering of little black paws coming up the steps, saw two blurs run across the landing into the bathroom and thump around in the tub, then run across the landing to the bedroom and bounce on the bed, Bella in the lead at one point, Smokie at the next. Not sure where the colors came from but that they are happy and I like them.

This was last night’s sketch but I had too many things piled on my scanner and no place to move them, so I couldn’t scan this image! But I got it on paper, that’s the important thing.
