(Includes 51 BLACK AND WHITE original art images created by the author) Alisa's life hasn't been easy. Like most, her past is filled with ordinary (yet considerable) challenges -common things not easily overcome. Looking back, Alisa sees struggle and suffering, but she also finds much hope mingled with it. She can see the hope because she has kept an account of it: on papers with a pencil, upon canvases with a paintbrush, using torn papers, pastels, glitter and ink. Reflecting on this account, Alisa discovers that someone has been with her through it all: an ever-present, personal and loving God. Dancing in the Doghouse shares this hope for the chance that others will see it, know it and share it too.
