Today's Paintings 9/27/09

This was a nice weekend with not too much to do...it was great! I got to go to dinner with some girlfriends last night to celebrate one of their birthdays and today I got to stay home and paint! Here are the two paintings I completed today. The first is one of my new favorites "Autumn Aspen" this Triptych is inspired by all the beauty around me in Colorado right now. The second is a custom pet portrait commission.

Custom Pet Portraits

This week has been really busy! I had a lot of custom orders this week, three of them were for pet portraits. I really enjoy painting pets because each one is so different and I know how much they mean to their owners! Here are Butchie, Ruby, and Gus. P.S. My puppy Linnie is doing much better on her potty training Yeah!

I'm glad for the weekend, was feeling a bit under the weather, but now I'm better and ready to take a little time to relax!

Potty Training

As I posted earlier, we recently got a new puppy named Linnie. She is very sweet and cute, but unfortunately, she did not come potty trained. The last couple of weeks my home life has revolved around Linnie's "potty schedule". Oh well, she is still young, she will get it soon....I hope.

I have to show you the coolest collar I bought her on Etsy though! She was absolutely obsessive about her tag hanging from her collar to the point where she would do nothing else but try to rip it off. I found this great seller who makes these custom collars with the tag attached to it, no jangle! They are excellent quality and are only $17.00, you can't beat that! I got her's custom made with brown leather and clear rhinestones, she loves it! I call it her "bling bling". I had to order one for my other pup Lucy so she wouldn't be jealous :0) I can't wait to get it! Her shop is called PoochyCouture click here to check it out!
