"Obie's Siesta" by Beth Bathe

"Obie's Siesta", 6" x 8", oil on panel

This is my dog, Obie. Here he is taking a siesta in a very colorful armchair, at the lakehouse we visited in South Carolina. The sun was starting to set and a strong light was streaming into the window behind him. I loved all the oranges and reds. I only had about three hours to paint today and I think it turned out pretty well.

Getting ready to ship pet portrait "Cleo". Finished this painting about a month ago and now it is finally dry!

Yes, I love to do dog portraits!!! Getting the model to sit still can be a challenge though...
