"Hagar" 9.5" x 9.5" watercolor
I wasn’t going to do a portrait, but I couldn’t resist those eyes. What a colorful little character is this dog, Hagar. I believe my friend, Melissa, and her husband adopted him from the animal shelter. If the story is different, perhaps she will be kind enough to give the full story in the comments.
This is the fourth in a series of ten paintings. For inspiration, I am using photos my Facebook friends have posted on their walls. In the evening, I look at photos of my friends and I smile. I have very nice friends and their photos show their love of life. Six more paintings to go. Oh, there are some delightful images for me to paint and I can’t wait to share them.
Thank you for your kind comments. You have no idea how much it encourages me.

The eyes are very compelling! Definitely good subject matter! Very nice!
I so look forward to coming home, checking my computer and seeing if you have produced another image. What fun for us! Thank you.
Yep, those are Hagar’s eyes! He is a rescue dog. We saw him at Petco one day and after thinking on it for a few days got him from a rescue organization. We couldn’t resist him– he has so much personality! 🙂
Thank you, Melissa! Those eyes would be hard to leave:)
You really captured those eyes so well. And I love all the color you introduced. Beautiful!
