I love dogs....they are the only creatures on earth who love us more than themselves...they exist solely to bring joy to our lives.  I firmly believe there are no bad dogs, only bad people.  These two are living the good life, with good people, no doubt....just napping the day away.  Oil on gallery canvas, 12x24x2.5, available for purchase...commissions inquiries for your pet portraits welcome.

© 2011 Melinda Patrick CAFFE TRIESTE - acrylic on canvas, 18" x 24" Contemporary realism, cityscape One of the North Beach series, this is a landmark in San Francisco. I'm sorry to say I've never been there - just by there many times. Deep in the heart of the Italian district, the electric poles have red, green and white bands. The colors are pretty accurate (I admit I often skew colors to suit my vision) and typical of the area. See more at MelindaPatrick.com and on my blog .

I am terribly behind on posting...my excuse is the long, hot, Texas summer and a 73 day series of migraines...whatever. I am so very thankful to be back in the studio. This work was commissioned for an avid golfer's home...a man who favors the links style courses found in the Scottish highlands...heavy rough, deep bunkers, lots of wind and hazards. It was really fun to work on this painting. To see more of my work, please visit my blog .
