Art Creations Friday - Background

Thanks to Art Creations Friday for another lovely background. I love the colours in this one. The photo is of my mother and her dog "Major". He must have been a huge animal as he is bigger than her, at age 12. This is not trick photography!! I have extracted the two of them from one photo.

    So pretty, Marie. That dog surely must have been huge! I'm sure they were great friends. What a treasure of a family photo!

    Wow! I thought your Mom must have been really little or the dog really big and I see that he was! I love the way you featured them both in this lovely, beutiful piece, what a nice way to honor them both!

    Your choice of image(s)....perfect for the background. Isn't it interesting how one background can be used so many different ways?

    Wowee Major is one big dog Marie and so protective of your Mum by the looks of this. What a magnificent picture you've created with this wonderful background. A heritage picture to keep most definitely.

    This is fantastic, Marie. My guess is he's a mastiff. Major certainly looks like a trusted friend.
