This beautiful dog was in the back of a truck in Alaska last year when I was there.
I could not get him to take his eyes off his owner, who was walking away from the truck.
The longing this little guy had in his eyes was what I was striving for in this painting, he was just so intent on his master.
Lovely to draw this one.

And it's a lovely painting. You do a bang up job on animals! You really captured that longing expression.
Thanks Kathy, I think I love animals so much, it shows in my work.
Unlike still life.. tee hee.

You captured his sweetness with beautiful colors and great values yet again. I know you could do animal commissions and sell them like hotcakes if you could find the right way to advertise. Such wonderful work. Just wonderful.
