Oscar from Denmark; mixed media (charcoal, conté, chalk pastel, pencil and watercolor) on heavy paper, 11 x 15 inches. By Sheri Larsen, otherwise known as Everyday Louise. I think this fellow is very dignified, in a picture that has real Impressionist charm. And I'm a sucker for deep reds.
C is friends with the fashion stylist Rebekah Roy (left in both pics above) ... one of those people who personify calm and smiling success. On her blog she presents glamour in this very sincere, straightforward way ... whether she's taking pictures of people on the street , talking about stain removers , her favourite videos , or attending some glittering party . One minute she's ruminating on hair extensions, and in the next she reveals how she's been featured on the Vogue UK site. A real disarmer and charmer (and this without meeting her yet, although I feel like I know her because we both did our time in Winnipeg). * * * * * Coming home from Russia, we did many bad things. ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. In my own life, the glamour is wholly imagined. * * * * * witches, smoke ; mixed media on canvas, 10 x 10 inches. My second go at this one, and for some reason I'm painting a lot of smoke lately (note to self: tell C that I want to be cremated). *
Oscar is a smooth coated fox-terrier. The painting is in Canada now, but will be off to Denmark shortly. I think the red really draws us in, and adds to the fiery energy of the this young dog.Thank you!
