Sorry this is late ( I had a busy Christmas Eve and day)
Wanted to do something a bit different this year. Well as some of you on Facebook know, the last of our Pom trio Gino past away a few months ago and as is tradition I would usually draw them with an angel. But I couldn’t really think of anything and I wanted to do something before the year was up so I thought what better way to pay tribute to him then to have him be this years Christmas print/card (we actually got Gino in December anyway so it all fits XD)
I originally wanted to do a picture of Gino running through the clouds (free from his physical body and being able to run around like a normal dog before he became disabled). But I didn’t like how it looked at all and I already drew him running so I just decided to just make him bigger, colored it and added a jiggle bell on him (fun fact: we actually put a jingle bell on him cause he was so light we couldn’t hear him or knew where he was)
I also did ones of him with a red bow and one of him with a blue bow. I did that because as much as it seems appropriate for him to wear red on Christmas it seemed weird putting someone other than Ryo in red. Ryo had a red harness. Gino and Casey had blue harnesses.
The past 2 months haven’t been great for some people so to those who are still hurting. I hope you still had a good holiday.
Merry Christmas everybody. See you all in 2023.
RIP Gino (aka Mr. Sprinkles, aka Gino Bambino, aka gean machine machine) you will be missed enjoy being able to run again say hi to Ryo and Casey for me.
