Lean On Me by Anne Zoutsos


Lean On Me by Anne Zoutsos - 6" x 6" oil on hardboard/masonite

The title of this painting is taken from the song of the same name written by Bill Withers - and I like his performance of it the best. I have always felt that for those of us lucky enough to enjoy the companionship of a dog, this song is so very apt. There can be few greater comforts in times of distress than a beloved dog.

Equally, our dogs should be able to lean on us and be secure knowing that we will always care for them. Unfortunately this is not always the case and sadly there are many dogs who need help.

A 10% donation will be made to Willing Hearts Dalmatian Rescue

SOLD

This painting is straight off the easel and will need several days drying time before it can be shipped

Feeling Good

Feeling Good by Anne Zoutsos - 6" x 6" oil on hardboard/masonite

To me this painting conveys the life that I would wish for, for all unwanted dogs - looking towards the future; living in the sun, enjoying freedom and love. If at all possible, please listen to the powerful song of the same name sung by Nina Simone. Although of course not originally intended, the lyrics of 'Feeling Good' can so easily also be related to lives of happily rescued dogs and this painting.

If you are not interested in purchasing a painting at the moment but are concerned about the lives of dogs and their welfare, please take the time to look at the Willing Hearts Dalmatian Rescue website. You will see in their pages, their desperate need for funds - please help even if you can only afford a little - every bit counts.

10% to Willing Hearts Dalmatian Rescue.

SOLD

If there is sufficient interest I will create this painting again but in watercolour as I think it would be an interesting exercise to see the same painting portrayed in two different mediums. Let me know what you think!
