An expressive charcoal sketch of a beloved dog, “Jude” looks to be a husky or shepherd and has just the sweetest face. Signed by registered Canadian artist Ruth Tye McKenzie in 1976, this piece would be perfect for any dog-lover’s home. The same artist also created the charcoal portrait of cat “Mr. Bojangles” seen in the last photos - the two of these would make a lovely pair!
