Zola, oil on board, 6 x 6


This is a quick and gummy painting of our Brittany Spaniel, Zola, who has since moved on to the great backyard in the sky where I can only hope that no one minds that he barks incessantly. He was such a beautiful dog. # I did this painting as quickly and painterly as I could, I've been bogged down in detail a lot lately and it's not for me. I prefer the somewhat ambiguous mark making rather than recording every detail as a court reporter might. I prefer that the audience members be able to fill in the blanks with their own life experience.
