“Keeper of the Mountain” is dear to me; while painting her I imagined what her pale green eyes were thinking under that stern, focused expression. Drive and curiosity pulling her down towards the terrain, a wonder we’ll have to imagine on this cold, brisk morning. Clear blue skies compliment a golden thick coat, blanketing a solid, muscular form made for quick, long leaps and paws crunching prints in the snow. She’ll patrol these mountains as the guardian, whose watch truly never stops.
