this is my dear friend Lucy
her human is Terence
Terence gave me a conk to paint on
(conks grown on trees)
one day it occurred to me to paint his beloved Lucy on the conk
original inspiration, she often walks and sits on logs:
even on cold snowy days she loves to be outside
winter being her favorite season
(she is part husky)
that is why there are snowflakes in the painting
it was fun to seek to portray a real being in a painting
as i usually make them up
