Thank you, Linda. I wasn't sure how the white on white would go over. I liked it although it bothered me that I would open myself up to critism that the painting was Norman Rockwell-ish. I actually had a comment like that and it wasn't meant as a complement.

I hope I can post one more before the show in May. Currently I am working on 2 dog and 1 dog with owner portraits. I don't think it is permissablee to post dog portraits and I won't be able to start photography on the owner with her pet until spring. But I will keep watching the SOG website.
