• Heavenly Body • Painting

• Amazed by the bravery of my neighbor’s white chihuahua named Heavenly who provoked Salvador, my labrador, to fight inside my garage years ago, I expressed my amazement by painting and sublimating the abstract on a 100% polyester canvas, and titled it “Heavenly Body”. • The dogfight between my labrador and Heavenly was not meant to be. First, it was like pitting Manny P against Mohammad Ali; or forcing David to fight Goliath. Second, the little dog took the risk by ignoring our sign that said “Beware of Dogs”. • As a true story, it all started when the chihuahua entered my garage ‘persona’ non grata; and when she began to bark louder that my ears could not handle, she managed to bite a ball of my labrador, and spat it on the floor. After minutes of violent fighting, Heavenly was knocked down dead, with blood gushing from her head. • To recognize not only Heavenly’s suicidal heroics; but also the love and company she gave to my neighbor from Italy, I have dedicated “Heavenly Body” to all chihuahua owners in the universe. • Aware that poor Heavenly had chosen to be in heaven to prance and swing like a celestial kitten and to listen to the British Queen play “I’ve Got You Under My Skin” on the violin . . . I also knew that Heavenly had dreamt that someday, some Salvation Angels from Brussels would give her 2 bundles of left-over bagels.
