A Costa cutie complete with a bow and attitude.
I made a tiny quick sketch just to remind me of the scene. Here it is.
It was a couple of months before I got round to the finished painting. I took some photos of shiny black cars and found a little white dog who posed charmimgly.. her name was Mitzy. Quite appropriate I thought. Initially she was called Marbella Princess, but in honour of my current Florida home she is now Miami Belle.. Que chicitita! no?

As a born and raised Miami girl...I have to say, you nailed the attitude in this painting! Fantastic! I've added your link to my blog so I can check back in regularly. Keep up the great work!
tried to leave a comment and it got deleted when I tried to pick an ID, Blogger hates anything but blogger!
Anyways, I love the way you captured the reflection of the car with watercolors!
I only painted two dogs but would like to do more.
