What is better, dogs or art?

No posts since April. I should have said. I've been away. I left my dog with friends. That is a long time to leave your dog maybe. Maybe it depends on the breed. It took a day or two but now we are pretty much friends again if not "best" friends, but then we were never that. At first I thought I wanted to give her away, that I wouldn't be able to handle the routine, but I'm adapting. It shouldn't have to be a choice, a or b, this or that, art or dog, no more than one should have to choose relationship or career, children or success.

The pic is of my studio at the Banff Centre where I was in residence. More about the residency on my Nevernevermind blog. Other works developing since the residency on my drawing blog His Master's Voice.
