Although there has been much talk when it came to how they favor certain students at a guide dogs school for the blind, the teachers who hung a portrait of one of the graduates said that there was no favoritism in their institution. It was actually a portrait done of Jeannie the golden retriever, she is now working for a lady from Denver, Colorado. A portrait of Jeannie was painted by an artist who lost her ability to see a few years back. Serving as her release especially when it came to the time when she learned that she was going blind was painting. Actually, most of her paintings before her battle with blindness focused on the Indian life in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. Where does she go from here?
What she considers essential is being able to clarify her ideas. It is her mind which is very powerful when it comes to the images she puts on the canvas. She has long stopped with the usage of pins for outlines when she discovered how they could be damaging to the canvasses. Pins are no longer necessary when it comes to her painting.
The painting of Jeannie was actually started with a line drawing made with a crayon. Using a paint brush in her right hand, she follows the raised crayon outline.
Jeannie was transferred to the care of this artist and that was when Jeannie was described by the instructor at the school. Golden and brown with a little bit of bronze, much like the setting sun, is how Jeannie was described by her instructor. The way she differentiates pigments is by using her sense of smell and she sees to it that she only uses two to three colors at a time.
She wanted the tail to be proud and fluffy and so she used her finger for this part but for the rest of the portrait, she used a small paint brush. There was a person who asked her whether or not she feels the frustration of not being able to see her works of art but she said that she knew perfectly well how each of her paintings looked. When it comes to the painting of Jeannie, she said that Jeannie growled in approval.
There was no doubt in her mind that she did good. Coming from the guide dogs school for the blind, she is able to live a pretty normal life. A lot of the graduates from this school have steady jobs. Volunteers are able to assist the blind when it comes to this school which spends a total cost of $1700 to train a single man and dog team, the students pay for nothing.
