#0302 "Spooner"

A portrait of a friendly and energetic dog that I called "Spooner". I titled the yellow labrador after the old hound dog previously owned by "The Unpopular Poet" who died before his time like many true artists - Tom and Vincent top that list. The name can be found in the Jimmy Buffett song by an identical title. The dog's name is actually "Hike" and was owned by the people who also own painting number 303 "Picton".

I was studying the the handling of muscle, fur and light and having quite a lot of fun in the process.
