Happy Days #028

 

Jennie submitted this photo of Happy and said, "I'm submitting a photo of our rescued Golden Retriever "Happy" with his purple collar.  All of the dogs adopted from GRRAND (a Golden rescue group in Louisville) go home with a purple collar and purple leash (as well as all shots, spay/neuter, necessary medical care, etc.). We lost Happy two years ago to kidney failure at age 11.  He truly was a happy boy throughout his life and I miss him still."

Friends #026

I was invited recently to snow shoe at Acadia National Park with my friend, Sue, and her daughter, Heather. At one point Sue stumbled (okay, so maybe she was making snow angels)and I helped her up. The cool thing about this painting is if you invert it, Sue's  helping me up. That's just how friendship works, doesn't it?

Puppy Love and Puppy Love Too #024 & 025

 The dear lady, whose father is joyfully trying to contain "Piper", purchased this as a gift for her niece, the dog's owner. She soon decided she would gift herself, also. Though I was working from the same image, I wanted each piece to each be an original, so used the different horizontal /vertical formats and used different supports for each. The first painting (above) is done on Wallis sanded paper, the second (below) on a ground of Art Spectrum primer I applied myself.

Soft pastel, 5" x 7"
