My "3 Things," No. 1: Running Desk

This is the first of my drawings (watercolor cartoon?) in response to the prompt to capture "three of my things that are somehow important to me."
 
Crow and Poodle said my Syrian desk looked like it could dance. 
I decided to try something a little bit simpler---running.

WAY COOL!

Okay...another children's book has been born. No pun intended here, Fresca, but you've got to run with this one!

Beautiful art work. really captures the running stride of 4-legged animals perfectly.

I really like the way your mind works.

Could give the Luggage a challenge.

Thanks, CROW: You inspired it, with your idea of dancing.
I miss seeing *your* fantastical animals.

I used drawings of a cat running for the model.

BOOK: And you inspire me too, with your cartooning!

ZHOEN: I haven't read much of Discworld but am always delighted by it. I wish my desk would do my laundry for me, or, more fittingly, take care of all my unwanted paper work (resumes, taxes, etc.)

Wonderful, Fresca! The colors, the shapes, the movement make me want to jump right into the painting and dance!

POODLE: Revisting the comments on the photos of the desk, I see it was you who suggested it might *gallop*!
