Original digital painting and not an altered or manipulated photograph. This is my Red Bone Coon Hound, a rescue who came to us last year at about 4 years old. She'd been in the pound for about 6 months, and before that on the street for at least a year. Probably got thrown out during the "terrible twos". She's a wonderful girl and has learned now to play with her rescued sister Daisy, a German Shorthair Pointer. She's finally having a real childhood! Hand-painted using Microsoft Paint and a mouse.
