He is really cute. But so difficult to paint. Because he has so much black on him he was difficult to see to even draw. So I had to work extra hard on this one.

Russell's painting



This is Russell. Lisa's daughter was asked what she wanted for Christmas
and this is her request. This cat reminds me of my last dog who was a
 French bull dog. I only had to look at him to put a smile on my face.
 I was smiling when I painted this.

Shetland Sheepdog named Dede


Kelly and her brother wanted a painting 
of their Mom's dog Dede who had just passed 
away. Kelly says she loves the painting and she 
can't stop looking at it cause it looks just like her.
My sister had a Sheltie when we were 
growing up. They are very sweet dogs.

Harley

This is Harley. He is a Golden Retriever who belongs to Judy who
was a friend of my Mom's. My Mom and Dad died suddenly before
last Christmas. On my Mom's last birthday I gave her some notecards
of her dog Ben. She (unknown to me) advertised my work by sending
out the notecard to her friends with animals. That was my Mom always
thinking about her daughters and her friends. Her friends have been
telling me about how she helped them. Going to a friends Parents
estate for moral support, going to a friends house to knock on her
door so her dog could get over it's fear and going to a neighbors house
daily while she was sick and suggesting often she get a dog when her
husband died. I miss them.
