Awww. Poor doggy seems so sad that his master wasn’t home..
It’s a great drawing, I love the fur and the pleading look in his eyes!
Michelle Wrighton
Thankyou all:) This is one that I don’t think I could ever part with, no matter how much I was offered;)
Susan Borgas
Michelle it is funny how we twig on who painted what because I have always been able to for the most part know your work. I guess the internet plays a big roll in that when following artists work and learn so much about their styles. I don’t blame you not wanting to part with this drawing; you have captured that special look that I do see in my husbands working dogs when he leaves them home. Nice to see they cheer up when they see me though…chuckle!
