This pastel painting is 12″x 9″ unframed on black pastel paper . The two dogs, Canon and Bandit live with the owners that are the proprietors of Keenan winery in St. Helena, California. Apparently one of the dogs has been hitting the sauce!! Thank goodness he has his brother to watch his back! But, seriously, the dog sitting up is Canon, a coonhound cross. His brother, Bandit, a border collie cross who looks to be winking, only has the one eye. I originally met both dogs when they would come to stay at the board and train facility where I work.
