Good lord, I loved painting these two!! Susan has a great story about them too~
Maggie and Gracie came to live with me in mid-February, at the ages of 16 and 11, after they lost their family to Covid. . Teeny Tiny Maggie was Gracie’s Mom, and a total diva! She was a Yorkie-Poodle mix with full on terrier behavior: in constant motion with very strong opinions! If she wanted you to do something, she would tell you…very loudly. And then she would argue with you a bit about how to do it…and finally smile sweetly with gratitude for your kind help, dear servant! What a character! She died in June of kidney failure. At nearly 11 1/2, Gracie is learning to be an only dog and loving it! She is coming out of her shell and trying new things like stealing art tools, tearing up tissues and raiding the dirty laundry. She is becoming a “real dog.”
