This dog is a poodle/terrier mix, and her funny little face just makes me laugh. She looks like she is quite pleased with her coiffure.

Francois

Francois is listed as a poodle, but I don't know...I think there may be a spaniel somewhere with some explaining to do.

Catnap

SOLD

This is Casey. Casey is my grandson's cat. I'm not sure, but I suspect Casey spent time as a zen master in the art of relaxation during one of his nine lives.

Ol' Blue Eyes

You Can Tell Me...

This is a shelter kitty. She's nobody's baby.

Chloe

SOLD

Tennis, anyone?

I've reworked this painting several times. It just didn't look right. I finally changed the background color to a medium value. I think that helped. The previous dark background seemed to overwhelm the dog's face, and also obscured the tennis ball. I like the heavier neutral impasto background. 

RyLee

SOLD

This is a custom portrait of  RyLee, a very sweet dachshund.

Eddie

Eddie's a German shepherd. He's about a year old - a teenager in dog years!

Peaches

Peaches is a golden retriever/spaniel mix, and, boy, did I ever struggle with this painting. I wiped it so many times before I finally gave up. I had a lot of problems with perspective. It seemed whenever I got one part of the face to look right, it threw off everything else.

Larry Chihuahua

SOLD

Greta

SOLD

Greta is a whippet mix.

Molly

SOLD

Our beautiful Molly girl. Molly is my mom's springer spaniel, and a beloved member of our family. Molly is a big girl who thinks she is a lap dog. She just exudes love and happiness. Molly was my dad's loyal companion, and stayed close by his side until he died. I have poignant memories of Dad and Mom with Molly on the beach near the Florence jetty. Molly was a young dog at that time and her ears would fly in the wind as she ran back and forth on the beach.  She's an old girl now, and living a cozy life with my mom in Arizona. Sweet, sweet Molly.
