Yesterday little Zoey was adopted by Tiffany and Eric. They don't have any other dogs, so I have no doubt that she is going to be the spoiled princess of the house. They were so excited to see her and so thrilled to be the ones chosen to adopt her. This is the happy side of rescue --- to take a little dog that was abandoned in a cardboard box and find her such a great forever home!
In the past, I have never used much red in my art. Not sure why, it just wasn't a color that felt comfortable in my palette. Recently I have gone to the other side, and I am loving the drama that red can add to a piece of art. The small piece above was an experiment to use red as the primary color, and see if it loses its drama if there is too much of it in an artwork.
And this piece is an experiment to remake the earlier collage and see if it is more successful as a smaller piece. I think it is.
Those of you that know me, know that I am never without a foster dog for long. I had hoped to take a break until after Christmas, but then I got the call. A little 8 week old chihuahua puppy had been found in a cardboard box outside an apartment building. And so, little Zoey came to live with us until she finds her forever home. She is a whopping 3#, so she is walking out of all the clothes that I put on her!
