My friend lost her dog of 15 years, a wonderful golden retriever. So, tonight I painted the most beautiful dog I could for Jill in memory of her beloved pet.
I used the ink from the ink pads. The dog was colored in More Marigold, Creamy Caramel and Close to Cocoa. I spritzed the paper with water before painting. The sky is Soft Sky, Apricot Appeal and Regal Rose. The ground is Close to Cocoa, River Rock and Garden Green.
The dog is from the recent MFT release, Gone to the Dogs, and the sky and ground is just painted . The dog tag is from Friends Furever. The Sorry sentiment says it all.
I love watercolor and although I have a long way to go, I enjoyed every minute of creating this card. Thanks for looking and commenting.

Having had our best friend put to sleep a year ago this July, I know exactly what your friend is feeling. I love my dogs almost as much as my boys. They are not my whole life, but they sure do make my life whole. Your friend will really appreciate the labor of love you made for her in such a difficult time. Tell her that all of us dog lovers feel her pain. TFS!!!!
