Dreaming in color



This is an older painting, but I love it. The subject is my (very spoiled) Labrador Retriever, Gala. One night I caught her sleeping on our bed (using a pillow) and I just couldn't help but draw her. This painting is based on that drawing, but just as I started to paint the sheets the painting started taking a life of is own, and I started using all these crazy colors (instead of the colors of the sheets).In the end, she wasn't just sleeping, she was dreaming.
