Making some progress... I guess?

Yosh, I haven't written here in a looong time. I have been drawing and painting quite a lot, so have I made progress? I posted some canine paw sketches in February and now it is December.... Almost a year without posting anything to my blog about my hobby.

So, here we go. In the beginning of 2011 I haven't drawn canines so much; paws were the hardest part. Now, about 11 months later, they are a lot of easier to draw. Furthermore, drawing realistic fur was also kinda hard, but now it's kinda ok too. I'm kinda happy about my progress so far. My goal is to handle different kind of painting styles and art styles, especially realistic. And I'm happy about that I have started to use watercolors much more often than before.

Here's something I have done lately:
