Illustration Friday - STRETCH

Click to enlarge
Whether they're racing down the home stretch, or #3 is stretching to get his nose in front, this seemed to be an appropriate setting for this week's challenge! Another crazy-rush job, but I wanted to participate this week, & keep the streak alive!!

And with the word being "stretch," I couldn't help but include this photo of my studio mascot, Miss Miga demonstrating what we call a "wheel stretch." (Nope, no stretching cats here!)

Now that both my Christmas trees are decorated, I *should* have more time to dedicate to the Illustration Friday challenge next week.....although I guess the real challenge will be to fit it in between all the holiday shopping & gift wrapping.......sigh. I guess we'll see!   Thanks for stopping by! Until next week......

  7. Haha, wouldn't it be funny if you pulled back the camera to see the two horses on a treadmill or something? I'm not sure horse racing is the greatest thing for the horses, in fact it often isn't. But it's a cute illustration! Cute hamster too!
