Christmas present!

Awww that's just so adorable :-) lovely pastel painting. I'm sure every one is going to love it in the exhibition.

Could I have the dog? Agree with Karleen, should do well at your exhibish ... would do if I were able to attend it, because I am as soft as putty about dogs; kept 'em for years, now really can't manage them properly (or afford them). Looking at pictures and fussing over other people's animals has to do me these days, and you capture something of the character of the critters in your work.

Thank you Karleen and Robert. I am like you Robert, am daft about dogs and love looking at others paintings of them too. Difference is, I have 3 of them lying at my feet waiting for the next walk and its raining outside! Oh the joys of dog ownership!

What a little sweety. You have used the Colorfix to very good effect Hazel. Smashing.
