You really got her eyes.
ReplyDeleteWasn't she wonderful and sweet?
I will miss her.
Thanks, Mar. Labs are usually so great, but she really was 'one of the girls'...
ReplyDeleteLovely painting! What a great dog!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't Libby's book great! I love it too...there is soooo much useful info that you can't find anywhere else. I think Libby is having a workshop up in Maine next summer, check out her website or come to California! I'd love to meet you and Mary and paint together...it is drop dead gorgeous in Morro Bay and Cambria.
Happy painting!

Oh, Kelley, I think this is one of your best! So full of personality ... and those eyes ... what a wonderful memorial for a beloved canine companion!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful painting ... I hope you don’t mind my venturing to suggest that it would make a great note card ... or a journal cover perhaps?
You have captured the eyes beautifully. I just love this dog, and I never knew her. I can tell you loved her, and her owner, by what you have put in this painting.
