Good Girl Winter

York (Canada), 2021, mixed media (gouache, ink, water-based markers on toned paper).

“This is my best friend's 7 year-old daughter Ryker and her dog named Winter. I captured this moment on a brilliant snowy afternoon, when visiting with their family.”

“Winter is full of endless energy and doesn't listen to anyone. Except Ryker. She was completely mesmerized by Ryker's calmness. It takes a lot of inner "cool" to stand up to a big dog. I felt so much awe and admiration for Ryker in that moment.”
