Anyone who has had a little dog in their life will know that they may be small but they are packed with personality! That was certainly the case with my little long haired chihuahua called Holly.
Holly shared my life from her birth (under a dining room table with me laying on my stomach to stop her dropping from her mum onto flagstone floors) to her peaceful death in my arms 13 years later. She was a huge part of my life and there are so many stories. One night we went out for a quick last walk and turned the corner to find a large wild boar standing looking at us. She chased it off!!!!
I feel her around me all the time and this is the wall we used to sit on together to watch the sunset every evening. To create this image I took a photograph of Holly that I took of her sitting on our wall and tried to her look barely there - the way I imagine her when I sit there and she is next to me in spirit, my little dog angel.
Born in the South of England I now live half way up a mountain in Umbria, Italy. I work from my art studio looking out over fabulous views of the Italian countryside. I am so happy to share my artwork with you.
