The title, Why Do They Throw my toys here?, is great. Congratulations on artist of the month! Again, your Bic Pens and Sharpies have done you well! You are so talented!

Can you believe this is the 1st time ever artwork of the month. Hundreds of drawings and after 14 years I finally got one right. I really thought I never would be considered since I am a cartoonist and folks when the vote, they always vote on artwork. So yeah I was shocked but thankful. Glad you have enjoyed this and thanks for the awesome review

For fun, for excercise and to make us laugh , you think? lol, love this one. Very stunning facial on this dog. Wonderful perspective-viewing by the angle you used. Master Artist you are. The added pool bottom design is supreme. Highly presented. Awesome nose, wow!!

I just love this piece Mark and I am so glad that you won the prize this month. This is so adorable and whimsical and so well detailed. It really evokes a lot of emotion from the viewer.
Because you have given us the dog's point of view when his toys are thrown into the pool. I doubt anybody has ever had that thought cross their mind. Great job! Great piece! Congrats again.

I have been awarded many 7 stars over the years but what has impressed me that in the past 14 years this is the first drawing that ever earned Traditional Artwork of the month. Thanks so much for the 7 star review.

They throw your toys in the pool because they know how much fun YOU HAVE retrieving them! Love your pooch's expression! I also like the way the fur on his head and ears has the flotation look of being underwater. I think the water on the surface has some nice movement to it!
Nicely done on all counts!

This is great. I love how the dog is so close up. I love the big nose. The dog is coming right off the paper. The background also adds real dimension. Overall a great composition. Thanks fr sharing.

Cute drawing of this pup as he is waiting for something to play with.
Great details and copy with contrasting background that shows the fog even better!

I really love this. The expression that you've created on this dog's face and the wonderful shadows and lights within the water. Really mesmerizing piece here. Thank you for sharing.

The way you bring life to paper with just pens and Sharpies is unrealâ€"who needs a full palette when your lines and shading do all the talking? Michelangelo had frescoes; you have fine liners! Here is my 6 for you,bro.Cheers!
