This spring and summer have found me spending more time painting landscapes than my usual animals. And as much as I enjoy painting those landscapes, when I'm painting animals, I'm truly where I want to be. It is like a long cool drink of water on a hot summer day.
This portrait is of Denzol, who crossed the Rainbow Bridge earlier this year. Denzol was a labrador/chow mix that came from a shelter in Florida. She lived a good, long life with a wonderful family.
Denzol's portrait has also generated a donation to the Yancey Humane Society in Burnsville, NC. Each of my commissioned portraits includes a donation to the animal rescue or shelter of the client's choice. Being able to give back in order to help animals is a great feeling.
The holidays are coming up soon. If you have a dog - or maybe a cat - or a horse - you would like a portrait of (they make great gifts), I have a few empty slots left in my calendar. Just let me know!
