The four-footed one has found her inner artist. She may have thought of herself as the artistic type, but today she managed to show the world her skills. Well, maybe not the world, but undoubtedly Beloved, myself and the neighbors. Especially the neighbors, who, thank goodness, enjoy her work.
It started early in the morning when my neighbor dug out his paint cans to add color to the shed he finished building. The four-footed one was the project supervisor during the building phase and naturally needed to continue overseeing things to the end.
So she snuck through the gap in the fence to inspect the cans and brushes on the ground. After all, the four-footed one isn’t the kind to shrug off her responsibilities.
At some point, between the paint leaving the can and the shed getting color on it, the four-footed one opted to do a close inspection of the chosen color. She may have become a bit too involved in her work, to the point of paint getting on two paws and part of an ear.
No one noticed until the four-footed one completed her masterpiece. Footprints dotted parts of the rocks and cement pad in exciting patterns. Here and there, some lovely arcs of color jointed the prints, no doubt the paint from her ear.
While she may be an artist, the four-footed one isn’t interested at all in cleaning herself up after her sessions.
