New Dog Print

Just finished a new print for sale in our Etsy shop and on our website.

It's based on the popular Edith Wharton quote, "My Little [Old] Dog...A Heartbeat At My Feet". I believe that this haiku-like poem was written on the end pages of her volume of "Sages et Poètes d'Asie" by Paul-Louis Couchoud, and was about her Pekinese dog. Later it was published in the Yale Review.

It's a lovely quote and seemed the perfect accompaniment to a sketch of my sleeping terrier, Noodles.
