Tribute to Baxter, a dog found on the internet. Done with Chinese brushes, ink, rice paper

Here is my attempt at painting a dog found on the Internet.  The dog is named Baxter and he is always outside having a lot of fun and not upset if he gets muddy.  This was done on 12″ by 18″ rice paper using a number of colored inks.
