St Dana of the Rocks

12x16" acrylic on canvas
"Animals are such agreeable friends - they ask no questions; they pass no criticisms." -- George Eliot
This painting was a gift to my parents. Dana, a St Bernard we had several years ago, rests on a rock on the Canadian Shield. This was one of her favourite places, and her spirit is now there in perpetuity. Dana was kind to all creatures, having "adopted" a kitten and even once saved a turtle trying to cross the path. She proved that St Bernards deserve the name. |
