Missie is a wonderful young Havanese pup. These are very bright, fun loving dogs. They are fun to train and so enjoy being with their people….Missie is  true to her breed. This is a quick sketch layout….nothing fancy with this sketch…..will lay some color and that is all that will be needed.

Yep…it is true…my dogs are the most photographed and painted pups. They are just too cute 😉

The temputure in the Atlanta area has finally cooled off…for a few days anyway. We have enjoyed our outside time, downside…the temp. to Niki’s pool…..chilly. So, last night a solar cover was placed on her pool….we shall see how well it works for after a couple of days of not swiming her hind area has gotten weak. She really needs this….I still have not found anyone in the Atlanta area with a heated pool willing to allow us a few swims for the winter months…she really needs it.

 Time for new paintings of my crew….so one will be done for each dog, then a group painting. We sometimes forget to keep up with photographing our furry friends….if one can, a painting is a lovely memory for you to have of your beloved pet…it also makes the perfect gift!

The colors fit Gem to a T…as does the shadows and highlights. Gem is a very loving dog, however she does not “Trust” people. Took her a good while for her to trust me….but she now does. She was a clients dogs. She came to me for training….socialization. After a few months her people no longer wanted her….so she is now part of the pack. We adore her!

I paint the NY skyline because I remember…

The view from the bridge….so wonderful…

I remember.

I remember a young boy,
so cute, so sweet.
I remember….my first kiss.
We were friends stayed in touch…
He was a Son, a Father, Husband, Brother…Friend.

I remember a young man….kind, decent strong, giving….

A fireman.

He too was a Son, Father, Husband, Brother…Cousin, Friend.

I remember a sweet young woman…her children miss her every day,

Her family misses her and her friends miss her.

So many on that day woke, showered and simply

went off to work….another day.

I remember watching….I remember the pain, the loss…the heartbreak….

No, not just another day!

So, I paint the NY skyline because I remember.

 We all scream for ice cream 😉    Done for fun and really, just who does not like an ice cream cone? I know I love them, although very messy but then that is fun as well.

Gidget is all ears….not that she listens to her people very well….loves to tell a tale or two and demands to be pampered 😉

Benni is still a WIP…although I am almost there….will put him aside and have another look in a day or so to finish up. What a lovely friendly cat Benni is….as often Maine Coons are….and Benni is a wonderful example of an outgoing, friendly Maine Coon.

                                    madiebw.jpg                                                                                                                                                                                       Interestingly enough, not everything has to be in color. While I love using a colorful palette I also just enjoy the simplicity of a painting that ranges from Black to White and in-between. This is Madie….lovely and so very feisty and very scrappy with other dogs just as a Schnauzer should be….well maybe not so scrappy with other dogs 😉 Her lovely image will be on coffee mugs and a sweat shirt….great gifts for the pet lover. For those that must have color….

 The Siamese Cat…lovely indeed! They love to be in your lap, your bed and your table. They like to tell tales…they speak both with their voice and their body language. In painting one must pay close attention to the eyes….and of course their body language.
