This small painting is called Hot Dog. An overheating old dog trundled into the pond, stood there and gulped back the pond-water, looking hot, pestered and exhausted. Just waiting to cool down.
For those of you who don't fare well in the summer heat, today must've been a real treat !
Hi Cheryclaire
Fab pic! Your talent?
I have the wood burner on as I am so cold!!!
Heat regulation yet to be re-mastered!
🤗🤗🤗
The detail you have captured in that old dogs face is amazing, talent indeed. I detest the heat and shut the shutters to keep the sun out and have fans going full blast.
Today was a real treat to feel cool but when I climbed into my bed my hands were so painful with the raynauds I had to put gloves on !
Strange weather indeed.
Sensible dog .I'm glad for the cooler weather too!!
Great painting .
You've caught the dogs expression.
So love your work - thank you for sharing 🐕🦺
thanks Cherylclaire, Poor dog. I admit I am a meany and wish for a cooler summer as I cannot cope with hot weather! However, same with cold weather, still in fleeces and joggers, and hot water bottles at bed times. I joke 'no pleasing some people'.
Just realized your painting. Excellent 🙂

Aww Cheryl, as a dog lover that melts my heart !
As others have said, your wonderful talent has totally captured the dogs mood. I can feel his weariness yet relief from here .
Fabulous ! Thanks so much for sharing it with us all xx
Thanks, everyone. This painting continues to make me laugh - in a sympathetic way. The dog's morose face tells the entire story of it's discomfort in the heat, which made the painting so easy to do. I can't imagine the pondwater was very refreshing to drink either.
If you are going to be ill, be a dog!
Can anyone recommend an MD who understands PA?
Hot summer
coming back to life
