The Siesta

An open edition Giclee print of my watercolor painting, "The Siesta”, of a miniature schnauzer taking an afternoon nap in the most gorgeous, inviting room!  This joyful painting is filled with many thoughtful details that make me smile! On the wall hangs a painting by Paul Gauguin called, "The Siesta". The colors of this painting are echoed throughout the room in the collection of vases, the green ottoman and the charming blue-striped sofa! Violet and pink, bearded iris adorn the Limoges vase, a statue of dolphins and an angel fish sit on the table under the painting. A few of the patterned pillows on the sofa have tropical-themed prints of butterflies, plumeria flowers and coconut palms. The lamp shade has hibiscus and bird of paradise flowers amongst soft greenery.  This artwork is part of my series depicting cherished pets and wildlife  coexisting under one roof!  It's a powerful reminder that we can live in harmony with nature when we open our hearts and truly see the wonder in every living being.  We become part of something bigger, an unbreakable bond that unites us all.
