This is my first painting of 2017.

I decided on Chumley because he is my most favorite subject to paint and this is his favorite thing to do - see the fish at the Arboretum. I ask him "do you want to go see the fish?" and he knows exactly what's coming. If I let him, he would stay all day and stare at the koi. When we leave he digs his feet in and pulls on the leash with his teeth to stay. I practically have to drag him out (really sad).

Any way, I'm hoping for the New Year you get to do all of your most favorite things.

Happy New Year Everybody!

I painted this image a few years ago and I've alway wanted to paint it big.
Now, it's almost life-size!

This is Petunia and she is a Rat Terrier rescue.
I saw a photo of her in the New Rattitude Rescue calendar and HAD the paint her. She reminded me so much of my Frida with the attitude, sitting pretty on that chair.

This is Gus. He belongs to a good friend. Every time I would go to her house, Gus would most likely be sitting on the sofa and I would sit next to him. Unlike most cats that would run away to some dark room in the back of the house at the sight of an intruder, he would stay and let me pet him and just sit quietly - nothing seemed to bother him and always seemed deep in thought.
He was a cool cat and will be missed.

PAINT MY DOG #10

8" x 10"

private collection

This is the final painting in the PAINT MY DOG! series for 2015.

The dog belongs to the awesome painter Susan B. Hecht who taught me color theory - I took a 3 day workshop with her and what she taught me changed my painting.
Her website is http://susanbhecht.com/


Here are all the PAINT MY DOG paintings...
I like to think each painting has it's own personality in the brush stokes and color just like each subject does.
