This painting was a gift for my father. I tried all
fall to paint it using watercolor, but finally gave up and finished this
acrylic within a day. Cheri was a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel that my father had 20 years ago. She was the gentlest of dogs. When she was a puppy and left her mother, the breeder sent a pink fake-fur blanket with her. |

| Cheri carried that blanket with her always. This was her normal resting pose, blanket between her front paws and her hind legs stretched out behind her. |
