‘BOOGIE’ my first dog – Fox Terrier
A Fox Terrier wirehair was the first dog I ever had and the one who made me understand how life can change if we have a good friend, a best friend, a DOG FRIEND.
I was only 9 years old and together with him I lost many fears; like going to the terrace during the night, all alone, and fearless only because HE was there to take care of me from the ghosts and the darkness.
Terriers have been very dear to me ever since, and I love them all, I find their personalities fascinating and always exiting.
I suddenly had a mood to start working them on porcelain since it is a medium that until you learn to understand and control it you may have a little hate-love reaction, once you understand it you can only love it!
So here it is, my porcelain collection of Terriers where I try to catch their uniqueness, flexibility (as a large group which is similar but diverse, one for every owner), elegance, because a terrier without elegance is not a terrier at all. Porcelain is delicate and fragile, that is not a terrier of course, but so it becomes my heart when I’m close to such dogs that melt me just by their only presence.
They will be finished in different color glazes, non-realistic; I’m trying to express my own point of view and understanding about them, the ‘true colors’, what they take out of me.
I hope that you will like and enjoy the final results as much as I am enjoying working on them.
Keep an eye to see them finished in a couple of weeks!
Barbara.
