Five years ago in September, my best friend passed away of old age. This also happens to be the month in which he was born. It seemed an appropriate time to create this tribute to his wonderful life, and all he did for me. One can ask for no better friend than a pet, and Wolfy really was an amazing best friend. As an American Eskimo dog, he LOVED the snow, even when he grew too old to appreciate much else. I will always remember him as a wild Rocky Mountain dog, exploring the pines and aspens. I imagine his spirit still there, wandering the snowy silence of the forest whenever the winter comes.
The talented Fox Amoore has composed a song that accompanies this painting! Please listen to the song while you look at the illustration, it really completes the feeling we were both attempting to get across as artists.

It's so hard to lose a friend like this... We can understand your feeling, we lost two dogs that we love very much a few years ago.
This picture is one from our favorite, it looks like you have put all your love here, showing this pure sunrise, fresh snow and a Spirit, enjoying his stroll. It's makes us sad (especially with music and description) but also gives a cozy feeling, very warm. Thank you very much for a such beautiful art.

I'm so glad you uploaded this here- it's my favorite of all of your creations, and with the recent passing of my own pup it means even more. Aah, I'm sort of speechless...it brings tears to my eyes. Excellent, excellent work. <3
