Little Lola is a special pup – she was my first dog portrait! I donated a commission to a Team Cat Rescue fundraising auction and Lola’s mom had the winning bid. She was ecstatic with how it turned out!Johnny and Baby star in this painting I’ve titled “Beauty and the Blep”! I painted these darlings on March 2-3, 2019. They’re long-term fosters with a rescue I volunteer for: Team Cat Rescue. Here’s hoping this painting gets them some attention and a forever home!!I painted this little beauty on February 28, 2019. Maisie is a 3yo rescue I adopted from Team Cat Rescue in the spring of 2017. She’s a sassy little thing with a huge attitude! The painting and picture-inspiration are 100% my own. Acrylic paint, Mars Black and Titanium White, on 11×14″ stretched canvas (with a few random colours mixed in for her eyes and nose).I painted this handsome dude on February 23, 2019. Dudley is a 3yo rescue I adopted from Team Cat Rescue in the spring of 2018. He is my unicorn kitty with a great attitude and lovable nature! The painting was done at a “Paint-Your-Pet” event, hosted by Scratch and Sniff Canine Services in Guelph, ON, and run by Shannon Darch Animates, who sketched out the participants’ pets in advance. Until then, I’d never felt very comfortable with painting, but it was a tremendous learning experience, and all the past study I’d done on colour theory and tonal values seemed to just “click” in my brain!
