#0151 "Charissma"

This oil painting was based on the charcoal drawing (#0149) of Charissma Chadwick, my brother's pure bred Chesapeake. It was the opening day of Duck Season 1986. The weather was wet and cold and it was great to be outside. The Chesapeake breed and this dog in particular so enjoy the water and the companionship. She was a loyal member of the family.

I would have painted this in the Under the Basement Stairs Studio of our home at 81 Western Avenue in Schomberg Ontario.
