#DoodlewashJanuary2023 prompt: Dalmatian.
Did you know Dalmatians were used as ‘coaching’ dogs, trained to run along side coaches and help move the crowds out of the way? That’s why they were chosen to be firehouse dogs when firetrucks were still pulled by horses.
I had only done my first layer for this painting, but I decided I like it so I just sharpened up the eye and nose, and called it done.

I don’t know if it’s just my end, but there’s no picture Sandra.
Thank you, Gary, for alerting me. I hope the painting is there now. It posted twice for some reason, and I deleted one. It looked okay at the time. Computers – can’t live with them, can’t live without them!
Really nice, I second your decision to leave it as it is.
Thank you so much, Angela!
Beautiful painting, Sandra!
Thank you, Mary!
love it! especially your treatment of the mouth
Many thanks, Pat!
Really good!
Thank you so much!
It was worth the wait, Sandra. Beautifully painted.
Thank you so much, Gary! It’s funny. The ones I like the best are the ones that practically paint themselves!
