Nipper Moon



I have been painting Nipper's on recycled wooden bowls, platters and blocks. This is one of my favourites I call, "Nipper Moon"

on the boat





Here's a painting of Nipper on the boat done in acrylic on wood. I originally painted it in watercolour which has since sold.
This is a large piece, about 2' by 4'. This was Nipper's first summer at the lake, and he wanted nothing more than to go on the boat.

throw it now!



Here's a piece with a couple of girls and nipper. I was going to paint it, and then decided i liked the energy of the coloured pencil. Whenever we go to the beach, first thing Nipper does is find a stick, then when he gets tired of me throwing it, he finds willing participants by dropping the stick by them, and barking at it.
what a character.
