Trust

“You must trust and believe in people or life becomes impossible.”

 Anton Chekhov

Trust yourself. Create the kind of self that you will be happy to live with all your life. Make the most of yourself by fanning the tiny, inner sparks of possibility into flames of achievement.”

Golda Meir

My model for this very special painting (which is still not achieved) is my dog (a crossbreed wire haired podenco who was rescued from a pereira in Ceuta, Spain). His name is Dartagnan, and his story is very special too. At the beginning he was so afraid that one couldn't touch and go near to him, and he has improved so, so much :)

Dartagnan

When he came at home, sad and skinny :

And now :

And here's his "fiancee", my beautiful princess Doris :)  (also rescued ;)

Eye

En cours, un tableau qui a déjà pas mal avancé (tableau assez particulier pour diverses raisons) sur le thème de la confiance, confiance en les autres, en l'avenir, en soi. Je travaille sur l'oeil du chien (on reconnaît Dartagnan !) actuellement.


This painting is not finished yet. It is about trust and reliance. It's a very particular one. It's also about self esteem, love for others and for ourselves, belief in life and confidence. Here's a detail of this painting (model : my dog Dartagnan) that i'm working on.

 I'm now working on the eye and eyelids + the colors and shades of the hair all around... while listening to Giovanni Bomoll.
