Yesterday I went on a studio tour in Loudoun County so I left Charlie in day boarding at the veterinary. He does not like me to leave him, and he knows that if he goes there, I will be gone for hours. He doesn't like staying at home alone either, and if it's for very long, he starts scratching the paint off the door.
We had to wait a little while for Miss Kayla to come get him, so he jumped up in his favorite chair. He let everyone know that he was sad. He was fine after she took him back to the dog area, and he got to play and eat a bowl of food.
It took me an hour to reach the first stop. After that, I ate a snack next to a pond.
My main reason for journeying there was to visit Judith Thompson’s home studio. I bought something there last year, and I really like that her work is distinctive. Like many artists, she lives in a scenic spot.
So does this cat. I was warned not to pet him, although he rubbed against me.
The artist and her husband also have a couple of dogs.
In the backyard are the sale pictures, marked down because she has too many paintings. I bought one of a woman with a dog.
The last drawing is superb
ReplyDeleteInspired by the works of Judith Thompson.
ReplyDeleteThey look great!!
Have a beautiful Sunday Linda!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteCute photos of Charlie! The art work is cool. I like the painting you bought of the lady and her dog. Cute kitty and a pretty dog. The flowers are lovely. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a great week. PS, thank you for leaving me a comment.
Perhaps Charlie will admire it when you hang it in your home and forgive you for leaving him behind.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like a most enjoyable tour. But poor Charlie - We hope he got some treats as compensation for being left behind!
ReplyDelete...long necks.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pieces of art. Thank you for sharing them.
ReplyDeleteCharlie would not have enjoyed that stop...but I loved seeing an artist's home and works!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and art. Poor Charlie, but good that he's well looked after at the boarding centre. I hate it when Mum leaves me alone.
