This is not my dog, but it reminds me of every dog I've had in that it spends most of the time napping. I can't tell you how many times we've said, "Wake up, it's time for bed." Funny every time.

This is one of the few I had leftover from my gallery show earlier this year. I really like it. The gal is Pam, my friend who moved away to Tucson. : ( Before she left she posed for me around her house and I've painted several from that day. You might remember this other one (sold) -->

I've been wanting to paint more people, and while I enjoy the candid shots I get out in public, I'm never entirely happy with the poses. So I had the bright idea of hijacking one of my friends and making them pose for me. Pam graciously agreed. We spent several hours in her beautiful house, taking hundreds of photos (because who has time to pose while I paint?!). And let me tell you, I got some great ones! Not only that but she also agreed to let me paint any of her 9 grandchildren - wahoo! So here's my first one of Pam. There will be more.
