NATIONAL DOG DAY and CATURDAY ART

 ~ celebrating my four wonderful grand dogs, the Smiling Sammies, Chewy and Fiona,
the little Cavalier King Charles, Xander, and the Lovable Lab, Dougie Dog ~

~ and for Caturday Art, a completely fictionalized image ~ The Boy, The Dog 

The base image is just a simple photograph of a retention pond in a nearby park, posterized and with color deepened.  I then found two separate images from other old photographs, one of my grandson and one of his dog (Dougie Dog).  Each of these photos were converted to grayscale and silhouetted, then each layered onto the image of the pond, and slightly shadowed, hoping to create the look that they were sitting by the pond, using Adobe Creative Cloud, with border and text.

AWWW ~ AWWWDORABLE GRAND-PUPS

 

Frog Clogs (in slimy green) may be on the runway at Milan Fashion Week, but Xander and Fiona
prefer the more traditional clogs, though we noticed Xander did choose lily-pond-green for his.

But when it comes to backyard play, remember for this Florida boy and girl,

barefoot is best.  And Xander, not to be outdone by sister Fiona, 

the smiling Sammie, wanted to show one and all that he can put on a big smile too!
