In Memory of Sparky

In Memory of Sparky
6x6 inches, original oil

This precious little one passed on recently. My friend posted a photo, and I just had to paint Sparky. This is painting #3 for my 30 paintings in 30 days challenge. This painting is NFS.

  3. Sparky is a beautiful memorial for his owner. It is nice that you painted this for your friend. I have a painting of our dog Kate which was done by a friend several years ago, before I even thought about painting myself. I love it; it makes me think of Kate and smile.
