Someone recently asked me if I ever painted dogs. Actually I have painted a few and posted those early ones early on in my blog. Their question got me to asking why I hadn't painted any dogs recently and I had no good answer so set out to change that. Since I started out as a watercolor artist, I got out my watercolor palette, dusted it off (well not actually) and looked through my reference files for dog photos since our dog long since passed. The more I painted, the more I enjoyed it. I even threw in one painting of my grand kitten, Scooter, done with oil. Gosh they were sure fun to do and I realized that I've always said I love to paint anything with a face and yes, dogs have faces. Now if I could only enjoy blogging as much as I do painting, maybe I would blog more often. One can hope.
Beautiful art. Thank you for sharing this with the world. Water colors of the dogs are stunning.
