Ugh! Just spent an hour trying to figure out why I couldn’t draw. Apparently the new Wacom driver won’t work with my older Cintiq. I had to delete it and reinstall an older driver. Now I’m worried about updating my computer….

I just learned that my website was not connecting new subscribers to my newsletter for the past THREE YEARS!! It's in the process of syncing now. I'm so sorry!

Update! Hugo's biopsy results came back and he does not have cancer!! Unfortunately, he's still sick, but we know what's going on. He will be on medication for about a year and should live a normal lifespan. BEST NEWS EVER!

I still need names for all the dog characters. If you have suggestions please share them below. I'm also thinking of adding more dog characters in the future. And please hug your furry friends ❤️

Hugo has a biopsy tomorrow so we will know how to best approach things.

This project is inspired of my love for all things cute, and was specifically inspired by sumikko gurashi and Bluey. I'm imagining it as a series of short stories celebrating love, friendship, and dogs.

Last week I received news that Hugo most likely has cancer and doesn't have much time left to live. He's only six years old and my best friend.

I started this project but haven't posted it yet because I wanted to have more to be ready to post, but finished is better than it sitting on my computer.

If you are familiar with my work you may remember the comics I have created of my dog Hugo . I have been working on this new project and while it's not fully complete I wanted to post it now.

I'm excited to announce a redesign of my website www.clairelordon.com!

I realized that my old website was very minimal and lacking in personality. The rebranding took more time than I anticipated, but I'm very pleased with the outcome. It now feels more like an extension of myself and my artwork⭐ 🧡
