Moka - The Family Pet

Mika - The Family Pet



Artist:       Claude Chapdelaine
Title:         Moka - The Family Pet
Year:         2007
Medium:  Acrylic
Size:         24"x30" canvas


Moka (shih tzu) is the family pet of my brother Leo and his with France.  This painting currently hangs over the mantle of their fireplace.  Everyone who have seen the painting attest that I did a very good job of capturing Moka's spirit.  Moka's favourite toy is a red ball which is included in the painting.
