Description
One Team Two Heroes
I have had service dogs since I was 11 years old. The most important thing they have done for me is provide their unwavering love and support. I was so pleased to hear that Canine Companions for Independence (CCI) started a new program to provide assistance dogs as companions to disabled veterans in the US.
My friend Dan Keplinger invited me to display in a Hero Exhibition. When I thought about who my heroes were I thought of these veterans who had become disabled and decided to paint this series.
Each of these 4 works shows a very typical scene. A service dog is waiting to be called on to assist their person. Isn�t that what our servicemen are doing when they enlist to protect our country? Waiting to serve. This is why I call this series One Team, Two Heroes. I am so glad that these veterans get to have this bond and support.
These service dogs don�t care about disability, a wheelchair, or a prosthetic leg. They care about connecting with their person. That connection was what I wanted to share with people.
