Van Gogh is Done

Van Gogh is done! Hurrah!!

I finished him late last night, and started the smaller background dog with the thread unused in Van Gogh's tail. I'm doing tent stitches on the smaller dog, starting with the lightest color first and stitching rom his collar down in basketweave whenever possible, still with two strands of Burmilana. So far, so good.

Speaking of dogs, while browsing for dog canvases (preferably yellow labs--have you noticed I'm trying to find other versions of the dogs in the bar on Cape Cod and post them as the Canvas of the Day?) I discovered Barbara Russell, famous for her dog canvases, has updated her website. She doesn't just produce dog canvases, there is a white peacock canvas on her home page that has to be seen!
