Sled Dogs Waiting

6x6" oil on masonite

At the race, there were lots of mixed breed dogs(my favorite 'kind' of dog), part huskie,part hound,part shepard. Big and fast. The huskies though, they 'spoke' to me. Maybe its the intensity of their eyes or their coloring, or their 'wolf'ness, seeming to be one beat away from wild, touching my 'nature girl' nerve.

favorite part of this painting is the back dog's eye and bridge of nose. also the painterly-ness and intense color. ...now back to tending to my sick son and neglected laundry pile...

well, if you know me and know where I was this past weekend then you knew this was coming. :-)

I love painting dogs and this past saturday I had so much fun at a sled dog race in NH. The weather was gorgeous, about 60 teams were there from NE, NY and Canada and I took loads of photos. I realize this may not be a popular subject to the buyers out there so bear with me while I play around with winter for a while.
