Meet Bodhi and Sydney

 These two were litter mates...my son and daughter raised these two lovable dogs.

Meet Glavis...the best dog EVER

 We got Glavis from a shelter when we got home from our honeymoon (50 years ago) She was with us for 12 years, through a move to Italy, the birth of our two children...everything a young family goes through.  She was truly the best dog...we've never gotten another after losing her. Glad I found a photo I could paint

Done a lot of seascapes these last couple of weeks...here's another

 

Meet Tahoe...he just moved in across the street here in Clear Creek Tahoe

 I see this fellow walking every morning...I reached out to his dad and asked if I could paint him.  Here's the result

Another seascape...this one from Asilomar Beach

 

More seascapes...my daughter just took a trip to Northern California

 Fortunately the surf was big and she took all kinds of reference photos for me...

"Cousins Off the Chair Lift"

 A fun painting from Christmas this year...the whole family came.  Snow wasn't great but we got a couple of days all skiing together.

Happy New Year...! Some of my favs from the last year or so...
