I do! What gave it away? 😀 I really miss having a dog I realized. Also in Reykjavik you don´t see a lot of dogs. Icelanders in town are not really dog friendly. In fact, dogs were banned in the center until 2013…
Well, you do notice/include dogs in several of your paintings. 🙂
Now, how surprising about Iceland. I’d never thought that of any culture. Any particular reason?
Tschüss
And you can be sure I will include also more of them in the future 😉 also because they are pretty much everywhere, at least here in Malinalco and CDMX. Regarding Reykjavik, dogs were actually banned in town completely until 1984! I only learned that recently too. My guess is that they where considered farm animals and were not supposed to be in the city. And even today many Icelanders I know, dont like dogs because they consider them sheep dogs.

Iceland is a weird place 😛 They also had a beer ban for 60 years….
You like dogs don’t you?
