From the series Winter Windows, a new painting focuses on pets and how they enjoy the winter and the holidays season.
I created this series specifically to do greetings cards with them.
From decades working and living with dogs I learned how they adjust and behave in different seasons
Winter is when pets spend a lot of time inside the home and their routine changes.
In these paintings I’m showing what I saw them doing, looking outside or sleeping by where the sun is hitting through the glass of a window or a door and more.
Golden Retrievers are curious and in this painting I have one on a couch looking outside during a snowfall.
I add many details in the background even though I know it will be hard for people to see it in a greeting card but that was the way I imagined it.
You can see a snowboard store, the name of the store is VZ, where it is only visible “Z” (VZ are my initials and sometimes I put them on my paintings). Also it is a woman running across the street to enter another store to continue her holiday shopping.
The buildings windows have the lights on and some of them have holiday lights decorations.
I want the greetings cards to be a celebration of the winter and holidays season with our pets.
