Jack Russell Terrier with Yellow Ball

This also is a painting I finished this past week, today actually, and it's another painting done from a photo submitted by a customer.  His name is Chico, and I think he's a beauty. 

When I first painted him, I had him on a greyish-blue background - and it just didn't work.  So I just "abstracted" the actual background in the photo, and I really, really like the results.
