Sold

Today I was so busy going to a gallery for an interview that by the time I got home it was way past 5, which is time for me to start getting dinner ready. I have good news by the way, as I’m signing a contract with another very prestigious gallery. So back to the painting for today, well yesterday as here is 12:32am on Nov. 7 but I did finished the painting before midnight so it does counts as the painting for Nov. 6.

Another painting of my beloved 15 year old Ruffo. I took so many pictures of him that I might as well enjoy painting the ones I find more interesting until I ran out of them. You can see now he’s getting pretty exited, he just wants to run! he’s pulling so hard as I’m trying to hold my camera and his leash that the skin on his neck shows sign of the collar being way too tight. He will keep pulling until I start walking and if I dare not to walk with him he will start barking at me so I would start going. Sometimes I think the only thing he needs is to actually talk, because in personality he’s extremely abundant!

The sun that afternoon was so intense and bright that his fur looks shinny on certain spots showing some deep dark brown reflections at times even though he’s black.
