Description
This is a painting of one of our grandbaby dogs, Max. A feisty little schnauzer/bichon mix with a big personality. It had been over 40 years since I used to do portraits for dog owners to help pay my way through college. I guess it's like riding a bike...you never forget.

Jerry, great display of your versatility here! Excellent depiction of this little Schnauzer - you can really do it all!

Waaaaay back in the late 1960s and early ‘70s, I used to paint dog portraits on commission, Chance. Almost 50 years later, I did Max & Smyles. Thank you very much!
