Concept

In this painting, I capture a sunny afternoon from the perspective of a puppy, the moment she first meets her owner. The sky is a blue with cotton cloud, and sunlight bathes the owner's face as he bends down, gently lifting the little dog into his arms. The puppy's eyes sparkle with curiosity and joy, while the owner's smile is sincere and warm. At this moment, time seems to stand still, and all emotions are condensed into this first encounter. Through this painting, I hope to remind every pet owner to stay true to their initial feelings and cherish every moment spent with their pets, as these are some of the purest joys in life. The artwork, with its light brushstrokes and bright colors, conveys a simple yet profound emotional connection, allowing viewers to feel the excitement and happiness of that first meeting.
