In the spring of 2005 a friend's beagle bitch Lucky came to stay. During her stay I sketched and painted her (some would say excessively; but she was a patient model). I was grateful to have the opportunity to have a canine life model again. I missed drawing Dottie every day. On August 1, 2005 Lucky died unexpectedly. Now I have an additional reason to be grateful I could spend time with her.
This is a 30 x 22 inch sheet of 140 lb. gessoed watercolor paper. I used tube acrylics. I liked the feedom of working so large and loose. See the journal sketch I used as a basis for this painting. See additional journal sketches of Lucky, made during her visit. (Note: there is no link to return from this section.
