Description
I caught a fantastic picture of Charlie when he was almost asleep. He was on the cream leather sofa so I pulled out an old crochet blanket I had made a long time ago and draped it according to the picture so I could bet everything right. The white spot under his left eye is due to me picking out a sticky thing when he was a puppy. His vet said these dogs are like horses in that when they have an injury, their follicle dies and the hair comes in white.

Also, thank you to the buyer from Charlotte. As someone born in NC, I lived many years in Charlotte in 3 different places over about 12 years. Boykins are pretty popular there. Oddly enough, I never saw one until my husband saw a couple on the beach at Sunset and since we had lost our old cockapoo, he was so excited, I ended up buying one while I was in Florida!
Lil Taylor
Thanks all. Different versions of Charlie seem to sell a lot but this is probably my favorite. Thank you for the kind wishes! :)

Lil Taylor
Thank you, Marlene. That painting is just pure love from my Charlie to the afghan that I crocheted for my son when he was a baby. It idn't paint itself but pur love painted it. Thank you so much and I do try to be cheerful (even when some of mine are gloomy, there's an element of hope).
Marlene Robbins
Amazing delightful painting with personality! How do you do it? I see lovely energy in all that you paint..it is so cheerful-I like that!
Lil Taylor
Thank you, Bob. I've truly enjoyed your site. When Charlie looks at you with those eyes and you talk while he cocks his head this way an back, I could be in the worst mood in the world and start smiling.
Bob Orsillo
Lil this is wonderful, wonderful painting! Charlies eyes and expression how can you not be happy looking at this!
Lil Taylor
Thank you, Susan. it needed something special to tie it together and this just came to me. :) I cuddle with him every single night.
Lil Taylor
Charlie's hair isn't quite so light, except in the sun but that's his face, eyes, expression and sweet velvet, soft mouth. Yeah, Tyler, I love that dog more than I can ever even say.
