This is a Painting i did of my grandpa’s dog Gus. A Christmas present for him.
It was kind of funny to paint Gus as a prestigious hunting dog pointing in a field because it is not anything he is or does. A more appropriate painting would be of him napping on the couch. He is nothing but a spoiled rotten house dog.
Anyway Gus is my Grandpa’s buddy and I know that he cherishes his companionship especially now after the passing of my grandmother. Gus loves my grandpa incredibly much too! He follows him everywhere and ignores everyone else that is in the room when my grandpa is around. My grandpa fixes Gus his own hamburger, and lets him sleep in bed with him so that may have something to do with it!
I was excited to paint this because its been a while since I have painted. I can honestly say I have not had too many opportunities to pain in general. I wish I had more time too and I hope to make more time to paint in the future.
