Samson Smiles


 Recently I visited my sister in St. Paul.  I was helping her with a day of Gelli Printing with her third grade classroom as the artist-in-residence.  When I arrived, she was entertaining a few quests on her front porch from an event that she was hosting and it was winding down.  I got to talking with one individual about my painting of pets and she commissioned me to do her daughters dog, Samson.  So here is the results of my efforts.  It is a 6"x6" painting and I think shows his personality fairly well.  I believe her daughter lives in Oregon so the painting will travel a good distance away.
