Illustration friday: tension



Okay, there's tension in the house now because Emma is officially a...BITER.
It's a long story and everyone is defending my dog, but I still don't like that she was provoked enough to BITE.
 She's a rescue dog with many fear issues. I warn people all the time what to do around her and what NOT to do. This particular person didn't listen and  pushed her (and my) limits which resulted in an ugly bite on the mouth.

Live and learn. I still love (and defend) my dog ♥

For Illustration Friday: tension

Acrylic and colored pencil on patterned paper.

   Happy memorial day weekend!!!!

  1. Wonderful rendition of a Corgi, and perfect for the theme of "Tension." Well done!

    1. Thanks very much! Although I agree she does resemble a Corgi, she's actually a feisty Chihuahua/terrier mix.

  9. Dear Sweet Emma..it was NOT your fault. Your Mum and Dad know this... any time a Guest comes to YOUR home...and disrespects the rules your Mum tells them of...why then, it is the *Guest's* fault...

    Sending Love,

    ♥ Robin ♥
