Our Dog Rudy and I usually walk somewhere in the Cleveland Metroparks every day. Our favorite spot is Bonnie Park in Strongsville Ohio. This area was farmland in the past, but is now a picnic area. It has a nice walking path, and when it rains it becomes a mini-wetland. And while it is a challenge to take photographs while walking a crazy puppy, I managed this image which I painted using the Funky chunky, my sculpting chalk and my smeary flat variants among others.
