Heading off to Mexico!

I wonder just how early we have to be at the airport to make my daughter's wedding in Mexico?
Time sure does fly!
Leaving tomorrow and coming back on Monday! Good thing I have my animal sitter!

Paint and Sell DOG PORTRAITS! Art Marketing, painting

What a fun class we had on June 12!

It was a full house and the participants were all delighted to leave with a completed portrait!
Whether or not they ever wanted to sell a portrait was not the real motivation-it was the desire to learn a new skill and then continue with the practice!
Ah well if you missed it you can order the DVD!

1st PLace in the Professional Division

Ah, always good to have a brag or two !

"Will" captured the first place spot in the recent Kerr Lake Art Society Show. Nice little check with it as well :-)

Regal Pit Bull

And from one breed to another....this rather regal looking pit bull. 

I knew those years as a dog show handler would come in handy!

Each breed of dog has it's own "eye." Not everyone should own a pit bull nor should everyone own a corgi, or a poodle......

Created with pastels, this 11 x 14 portrait captures just what is necessary in this breed!
