Marmeduke
Dogs and the joy and colour they bring to our lives are one of my favourite things to paint. We are lucky enough to have a lot of dogs that share our lives - each one of them has their own individual character and brings something new and colourful into this world.
This boy caught my attention with his wonderful big loppy ears, soft baggy face and his tongue lolling out – full of fun this little lad is happy to be alive – I don't know his real name, and I don't know why but somehow he became Marmeduke to me and he reminds me life should be full of colour, lived to the full and where possible should be fun too :)
I will be donating 10% of all net profits on any of my paintings or products featuring cats and dogs directly to 'SOS Animais de Nelas' to help them in their endless quest to save, care for, love and give these beautiful creatures a life they deserve.
A little bit about SOS Animais de Nelas:
SOS are a small group of wonderful souls we came to know when we lived in Portugal. A few like minded individuals who have hearts full of love for animals and came together in 2014 to help the local strays and animals that have been abandoned or mistreated – often many dogs are tied up 24 hours a day on short chains with little food or water – or turned out on to the streets when they are no longer cute puppies or kittens. They currently have around 50 residents and have helped over 700 souls since they began.
This group work tirelessly giving their love and time, to help these animals with the care and veterinary assistance they need. They find loving homes for as many as they can and have a programme for sterilization and do their best to educate the people on how to humanely care for the animals they have – truly lovely humans who do their best to help those who don't have a voice, they have many hurdles to overcome everyday and are in constant need of food, blankets, medical supplies and of course money..
If you can help in any way, with a donation, re homing, volunteering, spreading the word or would simply like to know more about this amazing little group who work endlessly with love in their hearts to help these wonderful creatures Please visit their facebook page https://www.facebook.com/sos.animaisdenelas
