This is a Oil painting of a Border Terrier named Grynna. She was commisioned by Johanna. Grynna is standing at the swedish coast. This is how Johanna described Grynna:
Grynna is an 11 year old border terrier. The fact that her name is Grynna is a bit of a funny story: her sister was born on the sea and along with that all the puppies got their names associated with the sea: Gira (swing with the boat), Gasten (seaman)and Grynna ( mobile heighten of seabed). Grynna is very protective and brave. If someone in the family would get hurled on or threatened by another dog she would protect us with her life. It doesn’t matter if it would be a German shepherd or Pekinese! She is a big dog in a small package that doesn’t get her limitations. She is very keen about how we feel and she comes to console if someone feels sad. Grynna is very playful, and if we give her a ball she acts like a puppy again! |
