Description

In the snows of the frozen arctic, a team of sled dogs strike a heroic pose...well, with one exception: a brown coated Greenland dog looks more ready to play as it holds a red ball in it's mouth. Behind the huskies the hooded driver of the sled is almost totally obscured by the winter mists of of the Yukon.

It's been a rather warm winter here in the Atlanta area and I haven't much been in the mood for snowy images, but a cold front came through in mid January and the temperatures finally dropped. It put me back in a wintry state of mind. So I decided to go with a REALLY cold looking artwork. It's rare for me to depict domestic animals, but I do so on occasion. I started with all heroic looking dogs in the team, but I decided to lighten it up a bit and have one of the dogs be more of a joker.
 
Thanks for looking!
