Illustration Friday - SHY

 Percy was always a bit shy around strangers.....

Percy the pony is the result of a doodle during another less than stimulating meeting at work. I think he looks rather shy.....or maybe that's actually contrition.....

Jerry found under the bed to be the safest place in his new home for the first day or so....

Jerry (aka Jer-Bear) was inspired by my friend Jen's new adoptee. Used to being one of 8 or so cats in his foster home, he didn't quite know what to make of Jen & her husband, or the fact that he was flying solo, so under the bed seemed like a good idea. But fortunately for everybody, he got over his shyness after a day or 2. Jen might actually regret that if he decides he likes sleeping in her bed....
Not quite sure if I got his markings totally right, but I think she'll recognize him!

Am a little later than I'd like this week - Thursday nights aren't a good time to get feedback! But I kept the streak alive! As always, I appreciate your visit!!!

  1. I'm so glad you have so many meetings at work, it benefits your blog a lot. Great to see your IF streak continue, and continue with such cool stuff. I really dig your horse. He's giving the same look I get from my kids when they've done something wrong.

  3. Very cute and shy animals.
    I really like the cat, because we adopted one a while ago and he was hiding under the sofa for a couple of days too.

  6. my favorite for shy is Percy.
    His shyness seems deeply imbedded; likely due to his name...

  7. Haha! It might be contrition. But it works on me, he is too cute! I believe my dog does a very similar expression. Cute kitty!
