North! or be eaten's "Horned Hound."

I'm so sorry for not posting a thing in almost two months. I know.. it was a horrible crime and I should be sent to jail for a life's sentence. I have drawn, i have! But... I just haven't put them up because they are pittiful and not blog worthy.

   On a better note, Last Thursday (December 13) I went to my second Andrew Peterson's Behold the Lamb of God concert in Whiteville, NC. I first heard of him by an upcoming concert in 5th grade by my teacher, Meg Hinson who really loved his music. I was expecting it to be just like all other concerts by all other singers. But I was so mistaken. At that concert he sang songs from his CD "Counting Stars." and I fell in love with his music. I also found that he had written two books, "On the Edge of the Dark Sea of Darkness" and "North! or be Eaten". and was working on his third, "Monster in the Hollows" The next day he came to our school and told us about his books and I bought them with my own money. Within the next two weeks I had finished both and was so excited for the third. So with that, I am now a drawer and love Andrew's illustrations in the books. So the first Illustration is a, Horned Hound.  (I forgot to mention throughout these books There is much nerdy, dorky humor.) and so, I drew it of course!









Also while I was drawing my dad was saying how he could draw that, "strange looking mutt" in no time.. this is his:





The picture of my "Horned Hound is a little bad because my nice camera broke and I had to use my phone. Better pictures after Christmas.. (new camera on its way (: )

  1. I love this! Looks EXACTLY like (What I imagine would be, of course) a Horned Hound. Did you use a blending pencil? I'm obsessed with those xD Your dad's drawing is SO funny! Right now I'm attempting to draw a Flabbit (and possibly a Thwap, you never know!) and I'll be putting it up on Just Draw soon! FANTASTIQUE! Can't wait to see more!

    P.S. I'm sorry about your camera. I myself have to use my pathetic phone to take pictures xD So I feel your pain.
