Your Move

Every so often I decide it's time to paint a human again... I guess to see if I can still do it.  Luckily I have about a dozen beautiful and handsome nieces and nephews who have about 30 little ones between them.  That gives me lot of cute little models to choose from.

 Meet Gentry... cute, Cute, CUTE!!!
Meet Pistol  Pete.... happy,Happy, HAPPY!!!

 Full disclosure, no... the dog did not sit quietly and play a game of tic-tac-toe with him. Pete doesn't sit quietly or wait patiently for anything for more than a second or two at a time. Gentry's nana, my sister, played with him while Pete waited for the opportunity to grab a concrete X or O to carry off to bury.


Happy Birthday!
Enjoy "It's Your Move!"

    That's fabulous. I love the cock of the dog's head. So real.

      Ha ha! That's funny that that's your favorite part. That's the part that was totally NOT REAL! That silly dog would NOT cooperate with me and the camera. I literally cut and pasted a head from one reference photo onto the body of a different reference photo! :) I guess it worked!
