Angel Andrew

Andrew
8" X 10" pen and ink
2008

Andrew is quite the character. He is half Lhasa, half Poodle, and he was rescued from a Maine animal shelter. He lives on a farm and hangs out with horses, a donkey, cats, chickens, geese, ducks, rabbits and the occasional skunk and raccoon. Although he's over 15 years old, he loves going on walks with visitors, digging in the couch, spinning in circles, and riding in the car in his very own booster seat. He also makes a great lap warmer. His "Aunt" says, "He looks like and angel, which, in his quirky way, he is!" Andrew can be a little devil as well. When he knows his "Mom" is planning to cut his nails, he hides the clippers so that she can't find them. I think this pose captures both sides of his personality. I love his soulful angel eyes and his fierce show of devil teeth.
