William the lurcher having a snooze!
The interesting thing is, that had I given yesterday's sketch a Title say: Sleeping Dog. It would have told the viewer exactly what to see, instead of leaving the viewer to work it out.
I think this is where the Title of a painting or sketch directs people to seeing what the artist wants them to see .....
it's all in a Title.

:)Beautiful world of drawings!Have a nice day!
Very clever idea Ann - It was a face to me but more of a cartoon character ;-)
Yes, a dog!!! :) But I did not get the 'sleeping' part. You are so right, it's all in a title, funny how easy it gets when the title directs you. You are definitely the queen when it comes to characterizing a subject with a few lines, Ann!
Thanks Robert, Gilli and Judy -
...Judy, just shows how important a Title can be doesn't it :)
Of course!! Yesterday I was getting mad trying to figure out what it was, would never have guessed! Actually thought it was a face...a human one :-))
Thanks Jane - at least I feel this was a bit different, reckon I got people thinking. lol.
I had no doubt that it was going to be the Lurcher! But I still saw those crinkled eyes!
You're the one person I knew would know it was a certain lurcher Robin! lol.
My favourite lurcher! He's fab!
Sorry i missed yesterday's, but it does shout "William" :) xx
I didn't see the last post but of course there's no mistaking who it is. William is quite famous now you know. I agree with you about the title of a piece...it says it all.
Hi Pat and Annie...I knew some of you would recognise this chap of ours:)
I didn't see the other post first so can't say for sure that I would have guessed "dog" but I think I would have. Getting the face is the most important part. He looks great.
It's all in a title, that is so true. I love these blurry abstract with titles like 'mr Smith is taking his morning stroll'.
What a wonderful idea, to let your imagination discover the art. I love it. :)
Woofs & hugs! <3
