Rupert, in process

I’ve painted about eight Swissies, and I think a lot of people assume that they are all my own dog, Rupert.  I had been meaning to paint him, but I just never knew which image of him to paint — until I took this picture.  It’s nothing special, really.  Just a dog laying on the studio floor, rolling his eyes at me for taking pictures of him when he really just wants to go home and have supper.  This one is 24 x 48″
