Around a year ago, I drew a puppy-portrait of Rudy. Now it's the turn of the sweet (mischievous) Mister Felix. Commonly known as 'CrazyFace' 'Little Thing' and 'Felix the Bat', this ball of energy is growing into big-boy barks that are finally aligning with the superior confidence he was apparently born with! The squeaks of yesterdays just didn't cut it. While Forrest has been away, I have wavered between being infuriated by Felix's prankster-like antics, and eternally charmed by his cheery nature. Luckily annoyance can't last long when he trots past grinning from ear to ear in the wake of whatever destruction he has most recently caused. His comedy is his savior. Or is that my savior? Either way I adore the boy named after a cat :)
One of the best doggy portraits I've seen, so much character!
ReplyDeleteWonderful portrait, beautiful dog - both full of life and color.
ReplyDeleteThis is great--the whimsical frame finishes it off beautifully!
ReplyDeleteThank you! He was great fun to draw. I can't ever get bored of his silly expressions!
ReplyDeleteOh, Felix is adorable! Beautifully captured, I would not be able to stay annoyed with him for ver long either. Dogs are my favourite people!
ReplyDeleteTerrific portrait!
ReplyDeleteI'm playing catch-up with blogs I follow, and I have to say, I do love yours! This portrait and story about Felix are so special. Rudy and Felix - what a pair! nancy
