Description
Henri has called a meeting of the Neighborhood Canine Committee to tell them some amazing information he has just overheard. Duke, Blackie and King are not at all convinced that the little guy is circling on all four paws. He does tend to get excited and confuse the facts, but this news could be worth checking out. If a new Pets-R-Us is going into the Mall, they could have just landed in doggie Heaven.
Daz got me in a weak moment and put some of the Dog 8 stuff on sale. I was VERY BAD and got the Great Dane and the Lab. My daughter is going to kill me.
Elbow Update: Official verdict is Tennis Elbow, or in my case more aptly named “Computer Elbow”. Still using the left hand as much as possible, taking aspirin and limiting time in front of the computer. I’m able to do some Gallery time but only in short bursts for comments. I’ll catch up but it may take a while.
DAZ:
Dog 8 base
French Bulldog
Great Dane
Labrador

Awesome scene!
A wonderful scene my friend you did fantastic!!!
The little dog in the middle makes me think if Edward G. Robinson from one of his gangster movies! Very cute ensemble of good looking critters! A wonderfully marvelous creation! Bravo! Very well done!
Great scene and render.... your dogs look great. Take care of your elbow.......
Really nice work ! ! ! !
Love the little tale and your render :) Get some arnica for your elbow.
cute pups! take care of the elbow.
Love all three of yours.
Looks great!
Looks like they're planning a raid soon after the store opens up! What a fun and superbly done render, Teri!
You just take care of that 'computer elbow' my friend, and don't worry about the commenting.
Isn't it odd how we still wind up with 'sports' injuries by being artists? What's up with that?? LOL
Wonderful scene!!!
Great picture!
Future loyalty card holders for Pets-R-Us right there. So funny 😁😁
Urgh. "Tennis" elbow. Hate that. Got it myself from over-extension of the arm doing back- fist in karate. Elbow supports and weight training helped me but it still twinges now and then. I feel your pain 😣
Love the dogs. Since the background is so busy, it might help make the characters pop if you blurred the background or reduced the contrast.
Really cute and well done!
Now, this looks really natural. Love the way they're all posed. Lovely work!
great work on this, love it !!
Very funny and expressive, great work ! tennis elbow is long to heal, I know that.....
Nothing more heartwarming than to see a pack of very different dogs coming together and enjoying each other's company. Especially with the lovely setting and background foliage. If only we humans could likewise learn to look past our differences and appreciate each other's company, too!
(Do take care. I'll be looking forward to news of your recovery!)
Puppies! What a great image,
This is just adorable. Running with the big dogs.
get well soon you went all out on the dogs I just got the daz dog 8 Great description you have a knack for the one paragraph story
A most endearing and superbly rendered scene ! How beautiful ! Hope you'll pull through and recover from your current ailment.

Awww! So beautiful and cute done! Fantastic done, Teri!
Rod talked about "sports injuries" for artists---he's more correct than he knows. I was almost immobilized from years of writing, drawing and playing piano with my left arm/hand; just the repetition over years---with few breaks---necessitated phys. therapies, and I'm still paying the price today. So I totally get the elbow problem you have. I hope it's healing and that you're not in a lot of pain. Taking time to heal is fully understandable, take all the time you need...(and btw, the last time I played tennis, Napoleon was in power, so that wasn't a big problem...)
First, I love that you call the talker "Henri". French? Does he eat quiche and listen to Maurice Chevalier? I also love that he's the small one, and all excited...The other three seem patient enough. And I like that they have a 'group'---they must text each other with news flashes...a delight. And a composition note (here goes): The black dog is lined up perfectly with that great gnarled tree trunk, and they're both dead center---really good composition. A perfect piece for your tale...
Excellent
