Lots of Dogs = Happy Ladies

We just returned from New York City and the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. There were 11 ladies in our group. We had a blast. I have been to the show many times but it never gets old. And it was so much fun to see the show through the eyes of people seeing it for the first time.

If you like dogs you really should go once. If going to the show is not on your “Bucket List” it should be. Add it now! It is so special to see the different breed up close and to speak to their owners or handlers about the dog and the breed….and of course, take lots of photos. Can’t wait till the next time!

And then, as soon as I got home the local “Customs Agents” went through my bags checking out all the smells of all the dogs and for treats I brought home for them! I love to see the pure bred dogs but I really missed my mutts!!!

After a week of posting crochet on my blog I’m back to art. But first I want to say thanks to everyone who responded so positively to the crochet. I was shocked! And many thanks to those of you who purchased items. With your encouragement I have taken some things to Delilah’s so if you are interested in hats, slippers, or bags, stop into the shop and take a look.

Now back to art. Rockefeller Plaza is an acrylic on canvas measuring 24″x18″. This painting began as a lesson for a private student who was interested in doing a “representational abstract” of this view. We had fun working on it. As you can see it was a Christmas view. It is SOLD!
