Here is Kenai, Churchillās partner in crime. My take is that sheās smarter than he, or perhaps sheās just content to be his audience. Either way, they make for a great team. Because Kenai is the quieter partner, I averted her gaze, and set her against a darker ground. This created a self-contained space. The blues and violets echo this effect, and the result is a wonderful little painting. Kenai, 5x7, acrylic dog painting on canvasboard. Private collection. Thanks, as always, for looking. And for sharing these paintings with family and friends.
