Last years Dog Day Month of July was such a huge success I decided to do it again.
With in a minute of announcing the project I had people signing their pups up. With in 15 minutes I had a gallery wanting the project to exhibit - the ACE Gallery in Fort Collins for the month of October with part of the proceeds going to animal shelters.
Picking the first pup to paint, was a tough one. I have some many sent in to choose from right I was a kid in a candy store.
I picked Cissy because of the eyes and color. I remember last years paintings and Cissy reminded me of a couple of paintings from that project.
