Details, details, details…..
Anyone who knows me knows how much I love to paint details. The tinier the brush, the better. Here are a few details of my project to benefit the Old Friends Senior Dog Sanctuary and their benefit http://dogartforoldfriends.org/ . Stay tuned for more updates!
So often I’m asked to paint a beloved pet who has passed away. Some have been commissioned as gifts from loved ones, some from close friends and many are commissioned by the grieving owners. I hear stories of these wonderful furbabies and I grieve with each and every one. I’ve lost a few of my own over the years and I know how heart-wrenching it can be.
I’ve seen an increase this year, even painting a few who have been at the Rainbow Bridge for many years. It is an awesome feeling that I’m creating a memorial that will be cherished for years to come. With my art, I hope to bring a happy memory that might heal even a tiny part of a broken heart.
For those who have loved and lost, they are never really gone as long as you can remember them in your heart.
I fall in love with my clients. It’s as simple as that.
Sometimes people contact me to do a portrait of a pet that has passed away, some are gifts for others, sometimes they are just a gift to themselves. All of my clients have a special relationship with these cherished pets and I love hearing about them when they contact me. I’ve been told that I capture their souls. I hope that’s true because they have certainly captured mine. By the time I finish even the smallest paintings, I am in love.
I hope my clients don’t mind the hug they receive on delivery, even if it’s just virtual. Love was meant to be shared!
What do you see when you see a beautiful photograph? I see paintings. All day long, when I’m driving, when I’m scrolling thru Facebook or looking at the internet, beautiful paintings everywhere. Sometimes I wish I could turn it off as there are not enough hours in what’s left of my life to paint all the beautiful photographs I’d like to paint.This gorgeous Springer is Jamie, available thru English Springer Rescue America and I can’t wait to paint him!
What do you see? Take some time to really look each day at the beauty all around you!
