"Hanging Out With the Fishies"

8 x 8"
oil on masonite
sold

A big thumb's up to Hilton Head Island - their beaches are very dog-friendly. When I'm away from home, and missing my Petey, it thrills me to meet the numerous, happy dogs playing in the water and digging up crabs. After all, they deserve a vacation too.

This new painting will be included in Howard/Mandville's 20th Annual Small Works Show - opening November 13th.

    Your gift of seeing the present moments, the pieces of everyday life, are what make your work uniquely yours. It's funny, because it is so much more than just the skill, or the colors, but it is your way of seeing life that shows up and is such a delight. It is a gift that is appropriately and rightly shared. Thanks!

    I always thought those dogs were lazy. Boy, was I wrong. Not to long ago I had one chase me on my bike trip. Love this paiting Karen.

    Very striking! Looks like the dog was told to sit and he just wants to go follow his owner...

    LOVE the warm sand against the sky. Perfect rendering of the chair - and ... the DOG - *spot* on!
