Abeque
Watercolor
created 2011
This is a Cheyenne name for a woman and it means âstays at home.â When I chose this name for the wolf in my painting I was thinking of my male cattle dog, âBuddha.â I wistfully thoughtâ¦.if only he would stay at home. Perhaps if I had named him âAbequeâ he would have stayed at home? Also the look of the eyes. âBuddhaâ lies like this a lot and he has a shifty look in his eyes when he is calculating how he could leave home without me catching him. Actually the look in the wolf eyes is quite fierce. Buddhaâs are never fierce. He is very gentle. The last time he left I found him at the liquor store in town. Someone always finds him. I think that he shape shifts. How else can he be here one moment and then the next gone.
