Three Muses #85 Nature's Creatures

I was inspired by my neighbor's dogs...two little fellows I've dubbed "The Nutsy Brothers". Chihuahuas are, well, talkative. I love to see my 107 lb lab walk the fence with them on the other side carrying on like a couple of goofballs...they shake and shiver so hard, I fear for them! And my Oliver is just as calm and laid back as they come. But, I swear, I see a smile on his face every time. I rather think he enjoys being the cause of their frantic antics!

Wow, the colors in this are gorgeous, Lynn. Our lab, now waiting for us at the rainbow bridge, just loved other dogs. She would get so excited when we met dogs on our walks. Sometimes the other dogs weren't so happy, but that never deterred her from prancing around excitedly right to the end. I'm glad you featured a dog in your art. I'm just sorry I didn't think of doing a doggie piece, too.

A great story, Lynn. Maybe you could take a photo of the nervous chihuahuas and your gorgeous dog one of these days (to share with your blogger friends).
Lovely artwork.
