"Jiminy Cricket"s Birthday Surprise"

This is our wee rescue dog Jiminy. 

His story is being included in a new book
being published by a group in Kansas City. 

It is a book about animal rescue and is going to be full of stories about animals 

who went from brokenness to forever homes. 

There will be before and after pictures along with their story,
 and a painting of course! 

I am so excited to be able to participate in this worthwhile project. 

This painting is watercolour and is 10" X 13". 

"Lou"

This is Lou! He is the quieter little brother of Kona whom i last posted. 

Unlike his rambunctious brother, Lou might be found laying poolside 

or lounging under a shade tree with Mom and Dad while Kona chases shadows. 

His Mom, wanted to surprise her husband with these paintings for 

their anniversary. I was most pleased to be included in their plans. 

Acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas, 16" X 20" 

"Elvis's Pup"

A young lady i know commissioned me to do this for her boyfriend. 

His name is Elvis. 

So it is not really the Elvis you might have thought it was, 

but a different Elvis. 

I loved doing this one. The photo was not very good.

You could just make out a pair of boots in the snow, 

so i thought i would put in a pair of boots so the dog 

has something he is looking up at. 

These are actually the hiking boots i long for. 

Had a pair when i was much younger and they were the best. 

Acrylic, on gallery wrapped canvas. 18" X 24" 

"Cairo and Sophie"

Two new pup portraits for a family who lost them both within a month of one another. 

The first little guy is Cairo and the second one is Sophie. 

I had fun with the backgrounds once i figured out what it was i wanted there. 

Both are acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas. 

24" X 30".  

"Alexis & Ivan"

One more puppy before Christmas. 

This is a commission 12" X 14". Watercolour on Arches 300lb. CP paper.

It looks like they are having a wonderful time. 

I love the Boxer because they enjoy so much 

being with their people and playing. 

They actually think they are human. 

We won't tell them otherwise. :)
Shhhh!!

"Tega"

I had donated a pet portrait to "Boxer Rescue Canada" for their Fall auction fundraiser and the winning bidder receives a portrait of their beloved dog. This boy belonged to the lady who won the auction. He is a pure bread male Boxer named Tega. Sadly he is no longer with us. This is watercolour on 300 lb. Arches C/P paper approximately 18" X 22" .

"On High Alert"

This beautiful fellow was a commission for a veterinarian. The pet was not well and sadly had to be put down. The vet wanted to do something nice for the owner and had me do this painting for her. I'm hoping it has the essence of the dog. I'll include the photo here for you to see as well.  This is watercolor on Arches 300 lb. CP paper.
