Playful Poodle - 2012

When I was young, Mom had me in piano lessons. I hated it, because I was a pretty typical kid. I didn't want to play the piano. I wanted to go outside and ride my bike. I'm sure it was hard for mom, because she had to constantly get after me to practice the recommended amount of time. Needless to say, my piano playing career didn't last very long. However I did last long enough to play in one recital. I had 2 songs that I played. To this day, I remember, not only the name of the first song, but I can still play it from start to finish. The name of the song was Playful Poodle. As I was photographing this painting today, I had an idea that I would immortalize that song by giving this painting the same name.
