Quicky Painting


Okay, I can't claim to have my muse back yet, but I rose to nancy's challenge to do a bulldog painting. It isn't supposed to be a serious painting, just a quick study to get my hands moving with a paint brush.

So what goes tick tock woof? answer is at the bottom of the post.

My neighbor has two dogs. One of them says to the other, "Woof!" The other replies, "Moo!" The dog is perplexed. "Moo? Why did you say, "Moo'?" The other dog says, "I'm trying to learn a foreign language."- Morey Amsterdam

A watchdog.

I know it's a groaner, but what do you expect out of a Christmas Cracker eh! Here is an old list from the bbc of the top ten cracker jokes.

Bad, bad, bad. :-)

BTW, I like the dog painting. At first it reminded me of Triumph -- that dog that smokes a cigar and makes comments. So then I had to take another look.

There's a challenge I would struggle, nay, fail to rise to! Well done - I appreciate artistic skill... since mine lies in appreciation, not always creation!

Love this painting! He/she just looks like she's ready to jump up and play!

At the risk of sounding ignorant, what exactly is a Jafa????? From the comments on the last post, I'm guessing I am one too, but I want to make sure! :)

You know, one of the first things I noticed (after thinking of Triumph) was how you had focused on the mouth and the tongue! Truly has your signature!

Hiay Susie,
I have a few pieces in "Would you could you in a frame" on Corry Street. You have to ask Sheryl to see them though. They are not out for display at the moment. You just missed my solo show at the Emporium :( You can see more on my work on corrine's page on:
