I created this painting after capturing Nipper on camera in the early morning light. He loves to hunt groundhogs & rodents and appears to be listening for them in this watercolour painting. I painted it at Cafe Tu Tu Tango in Niagara Falls a few years ago. Unfortunately, the Cafe closed down shortly after. It was a great gig to be a Cafe TuTuTango artist in their "feed a starving artist" program. I sold many paintings of Nipper over the 2 years I was involved.
The food was great! the people interesting, and the artwork on the walls inspiring. I sure wish I had another outlet like that.
