Yes, I love vintage toys. These tin wind up cats and lead dog are set up on a reflective surface. The Black Cat cigarette tin completes the composition.

As my Faithful Followers know, I collect Vintage Toys. Included in this collection is about 50 Fisher Price pull toys.

Butch the Pup was designed in 1952. In this painting, Butch stands at the ready on the mantel. Do toy dogs dream of dog biscuits?

I still have a little bit of tweaking to do on this painting but for the most part it's finished!

I really enjoyed painting the dog. He is a lead dog with black paint. The paint had fallen off in many places. The challenge was painting a series of little abstract shapes to create the whole image.

I really want to get started putting the paint on the canvas for a new Vintage Toy painting. It's taken me hours (days) to get the drawing done.

But first, I need to take advantage of the blooming sunflowers and photograph them. You never know when you might want to paint one.
