Lakshmi-my greatest critic of my art!
After finding me as her owner, Lakshmi grew up from puppy to doggie now of 10 yrs. with me in my studios and my galleries. She knows my paints, starting with coloring herself blue, the first time she entered the studio, then white and sometimes pink. Since these adventures always ended with extensive baths, she finally decided enough was enough!
Within time, after trying out some of my best brushes, Lakshmi turned to art critic. She made a habit of watching my strokes I made on the canvases, sometimes giving me a grave look of dissatisfaction, esp. when my canvases became dark. I noticed the paintings she loves the most are in red and blue. When I painted her portraits, she admired herself.
So as the years go on, she has become an established art critic, sitting in the middle of my classes, checking out my students works and enjoying her presence in my studio. I couldn't have imagined her but with me in the studio and in my life.
She is still chasing after balls and running after squirrels, now in Maryland = our new home and studio.
