Notes
Original Toronto Star caption: Max the dachshund; a friend's 5-year-old pet; poses for Oakville artist Noreen Gorham as she competes the dog's portrait in pastels. Most animals don't pose gracefully or willingly; so Mrs. Gorham bribes them with goodies to get a good pose for a colorfilm slide; from which she does her basic work. Three cats of her own stalk workroom; and there are cat figurines by her fireplace.
