Week 17 An Oldie but a Goodie


Welcome to my weekly Blog. If this is your first time visiting it, Q-7, in medical lingo means every 7 days. Since my background is planted firmly in the medical field that is my area of reference. So what better way to title this endeavor. :)
My painting this week is an earlier work done in Colored Pencil. This dog's name is Maggie. My friend JoAnne, who is a small animal Veterinarian was brought Maggie by some good Samaritans that heard her whimpering--at the dump--in a plastic bag. She had been shot and tossed away like trash.... Dr. JoAnne, took her in and has loved her and worked with her for years now. She did require an amputation of one of her front legs, and now gets around with a cart that she can power by her back legs. She has been the mascot of the Animal Hospital for years. I was so touched by her story that I wanted to create a painting of her and here is the result. JoAnne would wheel her around in this wagon. She goes to work with her, goes swimming and has a good life now!
I hope you enjoy this painting and Thanks for visiting my Q-7 painting Blog!! It is your weekly dose of Fine Art!! Remember, It's Good For You!!!
