I met this dashing, young gentleman at the local farmers market. He was kind enough to pose for me so I could snap his picture.

PJ the Service Dog

11 x 14 in, oil on linen canvas

PJ is a sweetheart who's a service dog in training. You can see a bit of her trademark yellow cape. Through Canine Companions for Independence, volunteers work in their homes with puppies provided by the organization. When the dogs are about 15 months old, they go to a Regional Training Center for more advanced training. PJ will be graduating soon to the next level.
Good luck PJ!

Collie Smile

I was lucky enough to come across a woman walking her two collies at the farmers' market last summer. This collie flashed a smile for me as I was taking her picture!

The Observer


8 x 8 in, oil on linen canvas

Jester is in training to be a guide dog for the blind. So far he's been more of a class clown but I'm sure in time he'll reach his true potential and graduate with flying colors!

Sled Dog


6 x 6 in, oil on linen board

This painting was taken from a photo I took at a dog show. I don't know if this dog is a Siberian Husky or an Alaskan Malamute. After researching online about their characteristics and differences, I'm embarrassed to say I still don't know! Anybody?

Borzoi


6 x 6 in, linen on board

I took a picture of this gorgeous Borzoi at a dog show recently. He reminded me of our Alfie who was a goofy fun loving guy. He learned life in the country the hard way. Horses don't always watch where they step and cats tend to scratch you when they're irritated!

I'm not sure if this guy is a Labradoodle or a Golden Doodle but he's big and happy. He has thick wavy hair that I'd gladly pay a hairdresser to give me.
