chow goddess

This owner and her ancient breed, chow chow, appeared a perfect complement to the hues of this fall-like day along the river Seine in Paris. I understand the source of the Seine northwest of Dijon is marked by a statue of a nymph, a dog, and a dragon and the name Seine comes from the Latin Sequana, the Gallo-Roman goddess of the river.

Thanks for the history Wayne, that is interesting. Beautiful creative image with great painting effect. Take care,............Patsy

Thanks, Patsy. It is great to research where I have been and what I saw. The coincidences are interesting.

It should be in a gallery selling for millions.

Wayne, to me, the image represents yin and yang, the unity of opposites. Specifically I'm referring to the diagonals that appear to conflict, but the presence of the woman and the dog brings them and the entire frame into balance. Outstanding work. - - My best, michael

Many thanks, Patsy, Tony and Michael. As you know we often feel an image long before we understand it.
