repainting a painting
.
Sometimes a visual idea, when transferred from the brain to the canvas, can go south! I’ve been gazing at this one “leaping” dog painting I did last year. Everyday when I come into my studio…there it is on the wall. And, every time I’d focus on it, I felt that it needed work but could never come up with a solution. Sometimes, the only solution is just paint over an idea that doesn’t work… and sometimes there is just a small clue that spurs me on to make a change. And, as in any change one makes, all changes require faith, courage, disappointment and finally, a solution that works! so, here is “Dogs in Tall Grass” acrylic on canvas. Enjoy

Just reminds me that it’s time to take a little break.
It’s amazing how just standing outside in a cool breeze can make a difference!
Is Dogs in the Tall Grass available?
The yellow dog is like our new rescue lab, six year old Daisy. The black dog a reminder of our dear black lab, Polly, that we lost a couple months ago. So I love the painting — a reminder of our dear Polly and a tribute to her memory in our new treasured friend and companion, the lovely Miss Daisy. Please let me know if this is available in t-shirt, print — thank you.
