While working as a volunteer one day at our local shelter, I went to the visit Jenny, a yellow Lab over 5 years old. I had planned to take her for a walk. Her new roommate was a young yellow male Lab, less than a year old. He looked like he could have been her own son. As I peered into her room, she was lovingly bathing the face and ears of the puppy, who was laying with his head under hers. I quietly observed the sweet scene, which gave me the idea for this oil study. The title, “Baby of Mine”, is from the beautiful lullaby in Walt Disney’s “Dumbo”.
(It always makes me cry.)
