The General Was Known For Her Porcelain Complexion And Pleasing Countenance, oil on canvas, 7"x9". For sale on etsy.
As I am still at war with the bunny in the backyard, I felt it was appropriate to post a military themed painting. Doesn't it just figure that even though this young 'Lady General' is busy blowing things up and setting fire to God knows what, she is still only valued for her looks. Sheesh! I do quite admire her hair clip though.

Beauregard, oil on canvas, 7"x9". For sale on etsy.
Introducing Beauregard the little porcelain bunny. Up until recently, I would have preferred a real bunny, but due to something that I like to call 'The Bunny Wars', I'm on the fence with how I feel about rabbits. Shortly before Christmas I discovered that we have a bunny living in our backyard behind the shed. It was actually Finnegan that discovered it, and immediately flew into a rage. There was barking and plenty of chasing, only to have the bunny escape through a tiny crack in the fence. Who knew that a King Charles Spaniel would be a bunny hunter? I thought they just went after Cornish game hen and the odd grouse. Now the bunny is all he thinks about. If he's not chasing it, he's wanting to get outside and chase it, and if it's not there, he settles for eating it's...ahem... droppings. This is not good. Now every evening I have to play referee and monitor Finnegan to make sure things don't get out of hand. It's not a great way to spend an evening.

Coco's View From The Top, oil on canvas, 11"x14". Sold.
Some people may detect some favouritism at play here with the dog breeds that I choose to paint. It is true that I paint quite a few Frenchies and Pugs, but it's not necessarily because I find them cuter than other dogs even though they do rate pretty high on the cute scale. The thing is, I like their shape. It's an aesthetic choice I guess. Their compact bodies and short hair makes them easy but interesting to paint. And then there are those crazy eyes. I don't dare tell this to my spaniel though (jealousy issues).

What Are We Going To Do About Julia?, oil on canvas, 8"x8". For sale on etsy.
It's anyone's guess as to what is ailing Julia. Is she in love? Is she pondering the problems of the world? Or perhaps it's just a touch of malaise.
