Illustration Friday - "Storm"

So I was inspired for this week's Illustration Friday by last week's storm. We got hit pretty hard here in Toronto but I liked it (then again I work from home and don't own a car). I knew we were in for a good snowfall this winter because the squirrels were super fat (they know what's up).
Anyway, this is a self portrait of me walking our incredibly enthusiastic dog.
Our dog loves the snow, especially when it's fresh, fluffy and he has his "balloon boots" on.
That said, he is a total diva in the rain.
Enjoy

  1. This is fantastic! Not owning a car certainly makes the snow easier to enjoy - I feel the same way.

    1. Thanks Miz. We live right in the city so public transit can handle our needs. We just rent a car when we need to travel outside the city. One less thing to maintain (and park).
