"Nap Buddies" Colored Pencil by Charlotte Yealey



This is a portrait of my husband and our rescued Italian Greyhound that I created in colored pencil for a competition. It now hangs on my wall as one of my favorites. Prints available. artbycharlotte@yahoo...

Such a comfort, our pets. That background is exquisite, Charlotte....well, the entire work is, actually!

Thanks, Bertie. There was a brick half wall with bushes and pink flowers so I just shadowed them in and did not define the background. I really wanted to just concentrate on the subjects.

This is so wonderful! They are all our babies, aren't they? I love this painting, Charlotte.

What would we do without our furry friends. This is such a tender, touching piece - glad you kept it for yourself because it is quite special.
