This is similiar to a cat my sister had years ago. She loved that cat and was beside herself when she died. Some times I think she thought the cat was part human.
Oil 8 X 10 Gift He's a Jack Russell, Terrier mix. He has long legs & black spots like a dalmation. The spots are hidden & we didn't know it until his coat was cut down. Surprise! It was a big one. He's the smartest dog I have ever had. What an enjoyable guy he is. Got him from the pound, where I like to get dogs. Usually get really great dogs from there.
The Jack Russell's are nice dogs. My neighbor years ago in California had one. He would come right on in the house if the door was open. He would go straight out the back & jump into the lake which was his only way of getting home. He was a fun guy. Very smart dogs.
8 X 10 Oil on Hardboard SOLD This was a commission painting I did for a high school classmate who thought enough of my painting to want this of his dog Lena. This was my first white dog which was a challenge as I had to learn how to bring those slightly hiden darker colors out white showing the white that was the prominate color. I hope he enjoys this for years to come. Enjoy Scott!!!
Oil on hardboard 11 X 14 $55 I am starting to love to do these dogs. Each dog is a completely new and very different challenge. This started when someone wanted me to paint a dog for his daughter. I am getting more requests to do a new and different dog. I wanted to make this dobie look kind not mean as many think of them. They can be very sweet dogs. How they are raised can & will make the difference.
I have no formal training. Have had one class and watched a couple tapes on oil painting. I started painting when my hands started to shake & I was having dexterity problems. I have Multiple Sclerosis and I am rather unusual as I paint from a wheelchair & often with 2 hands.
