Original artwork description:

The image was done by observing Dachshund puppies sleeping and photographing them and then creating the painting using all the pictures. It was done over many months in 2019 and 2020. Nothing beats the sensation of peace and bliss conveyed by a child or a puppy sleeping. One is reminded of a quote from Macbeth: “Innocent sleep. Sleep that soothes away all our worries. Sleep that puts each day to rest. Sleep that relieves the weary labourer and heals hurt minds. Sleep, the main course in life’s feast, and the most nourishing."

Materials used:

Oil on canvas
