I've never seen a purple Giraffe...

I'd like to think they would all be smiling at me like this one.

My painting workshop was today and I always manage to get at least two things finished in the 3 hours we have to work so I'm continuing on my dog painting project. It seems if you get the eyes right everything else falls in to place. I found this picture of a handful of small dogs and thought they deserved to be painted.


I'm not sure why I put them on this putrid green background but I tried to keep my colors in the right range so things would not clash too much...

I like the wild colors in the giraffe so I think there may be a few more wildly colored zoo animals in my near future...

Robin, maybe it's just me but I really like the putrid green background! I think it is a nice compliment to the color of the dogs... too cute...

I LOVE the giraffe. I always have to make it a point to blog-stalk you once a month just to see what your imagination has coughed up. You are amazing!!!!
