This blog offers some of my art and photography. Most items are for sale. It also provides occasional reviews of art events, comments on art and photography on the web, and other related stuff I find to share.
Here are our two Italian greyhounds. They are both about a year old and rescue dogs. This is acrylic and is 18" by 24". It is my first painting in over a year. I got some better brushes and revised it.

Your style of painting has always reminded me of some old or contemporary master, but I can't put my finger on it. Anyway, this work is creamy smooth and sweet, just like the dogs I'll wager.
Thanks. I am going to fine tune this a bit now that I went out a got some new brushes. The light made the painting much more yellow than it is. I need to reshoot the photo after I fine tune it. Bill

Great job on the blanket. I'm not so good with the lay of fabric. I love the dogs, too & the story behind them. :)

Lana and Mick Thanks. I am going to put some more color in the background to make the dogs stand out more. Bill
