INDY


8x10 oil on canvas 
For the last several months I have been very busy with commissioned portraits, this one was so much fun to paint of Indy, a very pampered and well loved Springer Spaniel. sold

This painting reminds me of Casey, a springer spaniel I once had. Beautiful!

This one is really sweet, not to mention well done. Also, congrats on your Art Blog Award from Edward! -- your fellow Texan, Camille

Dana - I do not remember ever responding to you on your blog - I think springer spaniels are so regal! Thanks for your encouragement.

Camille - Howdy Tex! When I accepted this commission, I wasn't sure about the lace pillow and the swirly fabric patterns in the background and then there was the whole sleeping dog thing, well, this one was super fast and I think it painted itself. I had fun.

Are you in the Dallas area? I would love for you to join us for a little plein air painting. I'm on my way to check out your blog; looking forward to seeing your work.
