I love dogs and have lived with them all my life. Right now, I do not have a dog, but my brothers do, so enjoy theirs went I'm at their home. This is a wonderful painting of small dogs playing together in the yard with a small ball. The colors are very pleasant and work nicely creating shapes that allows
the small animals to stand apart that make up their form, especially the black and white. Very nice subject matter in the small dogs and their relationship to one another. Again nice uses of color to define your shape and form in the dogs for depth and perspective. Nice work. Thanks for sharing.

    You are welcome. Thank you for sharing your info. I really enjoyed it. Please share in the future as you'd like. These were three dogs at three different times. It broke our hearts when each passed. They are indeed family members. Thanks also for your wonderful comments.

Precious painting and good commentary. I like the composition, the colors, and most especially, Happy. I have a Jack Russell and they sure do love their balls! Good luck in the contest.

    Thank you. Happy could bring me a ball in a shoe at the same time. They are so smart too. I miss all three.

What an amazing painting of these beautiful dogs. They looks so happy together playing so nicely with a ball. I love the beautiful and soft rendering of their furs and the grass is amazing. Amazing depth and shading and wonderful composition. Good luck in the contest

This is just so beautiful and your story made me cry...Pets are so much a part of family. It doesn't matter if they are dogs or cats...I even knew an egret who liked to become people friendly.

Very cute. Love how all their little faces looked. Great subject matter. I would have liked to have seen the background with a bit more detail. But all in all its very cute. Thank you for sharing with us here on FAR!

    Welcome. Thank you for your comments. This was done in color pencil then some acrylic to get the white dog (Happy) to stand out on a black gessoed plaque (I shouldn't have gessoed it black first but I learn.) It took hours and hours to do (Not at one time, thankfully).

    Thank you kindly, thank you much. Yes, little Pee Wee was so cute, just a few months here and standing straight up when he wanted something. The white one, Happy, was extremely intelligent and able to bring me a ball in a shoe at the same time. The black dog, named Brownie, other than when little was the more nuturing kind.

    Thanks. Hope that my longer previous reply was saved as I explained what each did: PeWee, loving to stand upright when he wanted something and he's only a few mos here. Happy (white Jack Russel) was very intelligent, would bring me a ball in a shoe at the same time, and the black dog named Brownie was the more nurturing kind.

    Thank you, Nancy, so much. Is it ok to call you Nancy, or do you prefer Helvi2. Yes, Peewee was especially cute, Happy especially smart and the black dog named Brownie so protective, motherly. And, it was emotional. Thanks for the "6". Really appreciate it.

    Hi Glena, It's definitely alright to call me Nancy! I share that with people I consider to be friends and am a fan of. You are someone I consider as both! You so deserved the six
    star rating! :o) Nancy
