The Framery, Sharrow Vale Road, Sheffield
….. this painting has finally emerged, from humble beginnings in July 2012 (yes, 2012 !). I was waiting for that final touch of inspiration – and finally, it happened – “Batman” (real name !) the (?)Boston Terrier/French Bulldog – who is very cute AND sports a superb green tweed coat, as do Batmans owners 🙂
