"Ike," 5" square, portrait of a Black Lab service dog. This piece was done in Golden Open Acrylics on Ampersand Gessobord, and is not for sale. Inquiries may always come to me. I'm going to leave it to Ike's person to introduce him: "Right from the day I picked him up from PAWS HQ ... he decided I was the one he had to take care of. There was no bonding time... he just decided I was his and he would do whatever I needed whenever I needed it. "We never had to work hard on anything .. we just blended as a team.... He was always ready and almost anticipating my next move before I even knew what it was. He was my heart, my soul, my everything. "I was his world and he opened mine." Ike's crossed the Rainbow Bridge for a while now. It was my extreme honor to give her a little slice of him, this time to stay for good. Thanks so very much for following along with my artwork! Kim Will U B My Valentine? I am painting a special Valentine this coming Monday. Interested? If so, send 2-3 clear,non-flash photos of your pet to me, using the subject line of "Valentine." All entries must be received by midnight EST on Saturday, February 12th. You can submit more than one pet, but please do them in separate emails. I'll peruse the photos Sunday afternoon and choose the one who sings to me the loudest. Said crooner will then star as Monday's Dog a Day painting. And you'll be singing "Hallelujah's", too, because once it's dry, I'll ship the painting off your way! So, will you be mine?!! |
"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me . Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po
Encore un autre joli toutou que Ike...
ReplyDeleteBonne Saint valentin...
Bisous
I love looking at your dogs Kim, they say so much. As well as being an artist in the works, I have a dog walking business, and it's like having 14 dogs! Several of my old ones have passed away in the last year, and it breaks my heart every time. I love them all, and I wish I could bring home more!
ReplyDeleteIke is very special!
Thanks yet again, Martine - I so appreciate your regular visits to my blog and ever so kindly comments! Happy Valentine's Day!! Kim
