Sunday Sketches

Good morning!  Happy Sunday to you all!  Here's my submission for Sunday Sketches this week.  I drew this at work the other day so I still haven't gotten to use my new pencils. Hopefully I'll get to try them out tonight.  I'm very curious to see if there is a big difference between those and the ones I have used for the past two years.  To see more wonderful Sunday Sketches hop on over to Sophia's blog here.

    What a sweet sketch, I love penguins. The are such fun birds to watch (although I have only watched them on TV and at the zoo once).

    I love this sketch. There is great emotion and love expressed in the downward tilt of their heads. I love the infered heart shape they make.
