Does this look like an artist to you?
How about this?
Or this:
Now, please don’t get me wrong. I’m not saying today’s art is going to the dogs. I’m just saying today’s dogs are going to the art.
Some may go reluctantly, unsure, not knowing what to do, as some artists go to a blank canvas…
You Can Lead a Dog to Canvas…..
While others run full speed ahead, unafraid, safe in an unsafe world, confident.
Yet with support and gentle hands to guide them, even ‘reluctants’ will take a step forward, and then another, and maybe another if the unsafe world is growing safer.
Everyone Needs a Helping Hand at Times!
And when he looks back at his achievement, however small, he smiles. Not because the painting is so great, but because he took that first step. And then another.
I Did It!
Now I’m not saying humans are any different than dogs. I’m just saying you can teach an old dog new tricks.
Which first step are you willing to take? Which first step are you willing to smile for?
For which first step are you willing to pin up your ears and begin? Then do it! Today.
Let’s Go! Life is for Living!
Loved the pictures of the dogs!!!
Definitely dog-gone cute!
Now that brought a big smile to my face and to my heart!
Remind you of the day you started to paint again? 🙂
I think that is great—dogs painting. Where is this happening? Would love to see it. Sandy Tincher
It happened at Turtle Bay. It was great fun!
Love it!
Good lessons for me….every step of the way!
Thank you for showing me a-new with each blog! xoxoxoxo Francie
Life is always fresh–what a blessing!
How sweet and what a novelty. And yes, the message was very clear. Thanks
for this bright spot. Love you
Thanks Peggie. There is always room for newness in our life. I hope you are enjoying yours!
Not bad. You are definitely tempting me!
You can lead a Liz to temptation, but…. 🙂
Have you seen the book ‘Why Cats Paint’?
If not, I’ll send it to you……..
No, but I checked our library. They have a copy.
I always thought about doing this with our dog Buddy. I never got around to doing it. Funny that someone else is!
Turtle Bay held the event in connection with their Dog Art exhibit. Nice exhibit, too.
Aww! I’d love to have a doggie painting… or a kitty painting! Do you think Miss Emmy would cooperate? Oh, probably not 🙁
Thanks for a delightful, cheerful post! I know I’m always going to find smiles when I visit you here… XXXOOO
I think Emmy would give you a painting if you placed an open-faced tray of paint and paper in front of her hiding place. Then I’ll walk through the door! Thanks for all of your help yesterday sending off my manuscript!
Cute!
