{Fiver, the puppy. Original acrylic in progress}

I recently asked followers on Facebook to send in photos of their pets as I want to practice painting dogs and cats etc. I was overwhelmed by adorable photos! Thank you everyone!

I started working on Fiver last night and think he’s just so cute with his one ear sticking up. 🙂 Can’t wait to finish him. I’m also working on a larger piece that you can see peaking out in the background. It’s so refreshing going from a 30×40 inch painting to working on a tiny piece like this 8×10.

Some bonds never really leave us.
They simply find new ways to stay close.
