Paintings in my Paintings

Just One Lick
Our 95lb lab, Libby does this all the time if her water bowl is not filled in the summer time.  Sometimes she gets caught but if you don't catch her you always know because of the huge water trail she leaves down the hallway.  This is something different I tried using gel medium on canvas.  I think it turned out great! I put it in a really nice off white frame and was planning to keep it for myself but I needed a filler for a show I was doing and sold the original to the first person I told the story to.  I was also asked many times why I don't paint just the paintings that are in my paintings.  Never really thought about me painting just flowers.  So this is where the idea of my tree branch and flowers come from.  They are actually a lot of fun to paint and they sell very quickly.  Yes there will be many more in my future!  Below s the sample from the original above.  This one has texture as well.  It hasn't yet made a new home but I'm sure it will soon :)
