Artist Notes:
|
A Chinese Crested sits in a soft patch of light, a small flower held gently, though it feels less like a gesture and more like something it simply hasn’t let go of yet. There’s a closeness to this dog—something immediate and a little unguarded, as if there’s no real distance between what it feels and what it shows. Rendered in a loose watercolor style, the delicate contrasts—bare skin against soft tufts of fur—are allowed to remain slightly uneven, giving the piece a sense of honesty rather than polish. The posture is quiet, but not withdrawn. Aware. Present. Expecting to be near. Chinese Cresteds don’t love from across the room. They attach. They follow. They stay close enough to notice everything. This piece holds that feeling—the kind of companionship that isn’t just constant, but personal, as if it belongs specifically to you.
