Solomon

This is a very small portrait of Solomon, a Brittany Spaniel (just like my mom’s), so I have made him in blacks and whites to make it different from my last piece. He is a very old dog — I jokingly refer to him as Methusaleh as he sometimes verges near death and then regains his puppy ways when given what he wants. At this time of year, he spends many hours sleeping in the basement curled up in blankets and he peers out of his cage at you with just this expression of “I’m not going anywhere”when you try to pry him out.

This one will go into my Fiber Art Fusion Christmas exchange, and I hope it goes to a happy home.
