132 - Bella Mug 11oz

A Mug Filled with Love (and Hot Chocolate!)
This mug is inspired by A Letter to Bella, piece #132 in my 1,000 Artworks Project. Bella was our family dog, and if you’ve ever had a pet, you know the kind of love that words can’t quite capture. She was one of a kind—wild, sweet, and full of personality. We grew up together, and there’s something so special about that kind of bond.

The color palette is based on the shades of her fur, making it feel warm and familiar—just like her presence always did. And with all these cozy brown tones, it also happens to be the perfect mug for hot chocolate. My mom and I are always experimenting with different hot chocolate recipes, so naturally, we needed a mug to match the vibe. Now, it’s here to share with you.
