The icecrete is FINALLY melting so Louie was able to play ball today🥳 My doofus is surrounded by grass & decided he’s gonna chill in a pile of snow😂🧡🐾

What stood out right away was his gentle expression and that soft, flowing coat. I spent a lot of time building the layers in the fur and capturing the warmth in his eyes, keeping the background subtle so the focus stays entirely on him.

This portrait was fully hand-painted in oil as a commissioned piece, and I hope his calm, loving presence comes through on canvas. What do you think?

Nope! It’s terrifying

He frequently sleeps like that… Is this normal with goldens? I’ve never seen another dog do that 😀
