Afternoon Snooze

Greyhound and Whippet Enamel Art: Afternoon Snooze

This enamel wall hanging was inspired by my own dog Toni (now deceased sadly). One of the things that gives me huge joy is seeing my dogs snoozing in front of the fire (or anywhere for that matter). I wonder what they are dreaming of.

In order to get the clean lines of the dog, and to get the blackened border around her body I cut the dog out with a saw and enamelled it separately. Then when both the background and the dog were finished I put them together like a puzzle.
