mine

Just finished this painting of my pooch with one of his favorite toys. Carol Marine's family losing all their posessions to a fire in Texas has been on my mind. I can't imagine the loss. She has been such an inspiration to me even though I have never had the opportunity to take her class. She has taught and inspired thousands. Her classes fill up before she even plans them. I want to help in some way so I am going to put this painting on the Daily Paintworks auction site with the proceeds going to help the Marine family. This is painted on an 8 x 10" galllery wrap canvas.
