Cooling Off Corgi

6x6
acrylic on gessobord
"Life is short, and so are my legs"!  I saw that on a Corgi poster in a store last summer.  It just cracked me up!  These dogs are awesome!  I grew up with Corgis, as well as Beagles.  I loved all of them!  My mom still has a couple Corgis, so I can get my fix whenever I visit her.
     I used a photo from Pixabay as a reference for this.  The dogs I grew up with were never beach/water dogs, so this pic really caught my interest.  It was really fun painting this guys ears...I love the glow!

Summer Swimmer

The weather here has been amazing lately!  I can't wait to start taking our Salty dog down to the beach to swim.  I used a photo from Pixabay as a reference for this painting.  Thank you Pixabay!  I love how the sparkles on the water came out!

Great Dane


12x6
acrylic on hardboard
I kinda have a thing for big dogs.  Especially Great Danes!  I love these gentle giants so much.  I had planned to work on a different painting today, but I was so excited to start this one, I couldn't help myself.  I really enjoy painting on these oblong sized surfaces; probably because it's out of the norm for me.  Enjoy!

This is another scene from my morning walks on Kailua Beach while I was visiting Oahu.  I wish that I could have our dog, Salty, there. He would absolutely love playing in the ocean!

I Could Do This All Day 2

12x16
acrylic on canvas
If this one looks familiar it's because I painted a smaller version of this swimmer a ways back.  I liked it so much I decided it should be on a larger canvas!
