One particular Summer day in Alaska, while JoJo was wandering with his Human-Momma through various trails and thickets, they came to a particular flower patch. He jumped up, put his paw in Momma's hand, and beamed love and foreverness with his best human friend...

"...she made you think..."
Adventure and bravery, quickness and wits are part of JoJo's innate personality, but it's the love between him and his Human Momma that really make his Loving Heart shine.. In this portrait done from a photo of them taking a moment from one of their walks, JoJo just radiates his overflowing joy and happiness, with his paws embracing the hand of genuine friendship, with his lifelone human pal.
Art Supplies I used to paint "Flower Patch Friends"
I used Caran d'ache SupraColor aqua-soluble pencils on primed canvas board, leaning on their more abstract-expressionistic ability to be washy and emotional. Capturing both the overall joyful feelings of JoJo's expression and the love in the photo, while being able to highlight little details when necessary, made the SupraColors a perfect choice to capture his fun-loving and loyal personality.
