dog painting
This is my contribution for the annual Dog Days exhibit at Wilde Meyer Gallery in Scottsdale AZ. Titled Dogs Remembered, it's 12" square, and follows in spirit with many white paintings I've been working on this summer. (Due to their subtlety, all of the white ones hard to photograph...you can get a better view by clicking on the painting.)
Wilde Meyer's request for a dog painting (an option open to all the gallery artists) is my annual reminder to keep my options open when it comes to subject matter. The first time I was asked to do this, I thought in a slight huff, "But I don't DO dog paintings!" But some little voice told me to try it, if only to be a good sport, and it has now become something I look forward to. I've done quite a few at this point, for the gallery and also to donate to the annual Humane Association fundraiser auction in our area. ¶ 2:33 PM

Hi, I was just on your website admiring your work. I really love your style. I too am intrigued with how old walls and such look.
Cheers...

How cool! It's like seeing the spirit or memory of the dogs hidden under layers of memories, time and love. Excellent...

Hey Rebecca, so sorry we missed each other on this last visit of yours! The dog you drew looks like my dog! Cheers!
