Just this side of heaven is a place called the Rainbow Bridge… On days like today, I think of my sweet Sampson the Great Dane.  It’s raining and stormy out.  His terror over thunder was immense.  He has crossed over to the other side.  It is a comforting thought to think he is now in a place with sunshine and green meadows everyday…

“Never Forgotten”

Rainbow Bridge Pet Art

As Summer comes to an end I find myself reflecting on all of the beautiful animals that have touched my life over the years.  I’ve lost birds, pigs, goats, cats, fish and dogs. For me the greatest losses have come with the beautiful Great Danes we have adopted in the last 12 years.  We bring in rescues.  They are an amazing breed with so much love and devotion. Unfortunately, their lifespans are very short averaging 7-8 years. Two left us due to bone cancer, which is common in this large breed, especially the males.  Our time with them was way too short, but the love they gave made it worth it.  Others made it to ripe old ages of up to 11 years.  I still think of all of them every day.  They are never forgotten…

“Mogo” the black one (3+ years) and “Sampson” (7+ years) the fawn, both crossed the rainbow bridge just a year apart.  They were best buddies…

“Bacchus” (6+ years) the larger patched harlequin, “Maile” (9+ years) the smaller patched and “Sophie” another black (11+ years).  I miss them so much…

I’ve never been able to identify with people who say “I don’t like animals.”  I know they have their reasons, but I cannot imagine my world without them.  I grew up for part of my childhood on a farm and I befriended all sorts of critters. Goats and pigs were a favorite.  But ultimately my most beloved are dogs. Aside from their loyal and loving companionship, they are just gosh darn cute! I’ve always especially loved their paws.  There is something about them that gives me warm fuzzies.  Recently while making homemade dog treats, I saw paws in the sweet potatoes I was cutting.  Here is my dog paw.  A canine you can eat!

Of course I have other paws too….

Working on some new pieces for my upcoming show.  My love of dogs makes painting them a natural to me.  It’s interesting as I am painting more on canvas again and scanning these…the canvas texture makes the image look a little blurry, but then I realized that I am comparing them to the ultra smooth perfect background of digital work.  See like I mentioned in a post a few days ago….it is VERY DIFFERENT!  But both are beautiful. 🙂  I hope you enjoy my dog art paintings as much as I enjoy making them.
