Mac's portrait was commissioned as a Christmas gift to Mac's favorite guy. I hope the receiver liked it! I had fun trying to incorporate more blues and purples than usual.

These are the tiny portraits I have painted this year.
Buster, a handsome bull terrier in a green sweater.
Piper, a girl with a boopable nose, commissioned by a friend as a gift to her friend who had to say goodbye to Piper.
And a rottie named Bruce who I painted as a gift to my coach.

acrylic on canvas
When I painted this 9 years ago, Patrick was our foster dog through Camp Companion after Safe Humane Chicago sent him to us. He was adopted, renamed Dozer, and lived out his years as a much loved family member.
Just like foster dogs, I wish I could keep every painting I do, but alas, I must part with this one, too.

I painted this one last year. Chelsea's portrait was a gift from one beautiful friend to another beautiful friend when she lost sweet Chelsea.

These are from last year. A friend commissioned a portrait of his dog, Timber. Never have I done this, but I painted TWO. I wasn't happy with the first one. It's the grass. I despise painting grass or even the suggestion of it. The grass made me start over with something else. Turns out he liked both of them!

I painted Bennie as a Christmas commission from a friend to his fiance. They are both great and their pets are, too! I tried really hard to get Benny's smirk right. I hope I did it justice.

I painted this one in December. Tiniest painting I have ever done. 2x2 inches! I saw these canvases at the craft store and I had to try it. So cute. I might need to do a few more. This one is of my Johnny. ❤️ This lovebug is getting surgery this week.

This was commissioned as a gift last Christmas. It is easily one of my favorite paintings. I feel bad even saying that, but for some reason, it just flowed out of me. I had doubts the whole time, but it kept working out. The receiver of this gift loved it and that makes me so happy!

Black dogs are really tough for me to paint. I don't want them to look boring, but they really are mostly black and that comes across flat. I feel so much pressure to make each portrait a special one that the challenging ones really test me. Zin was my friend Katie's dog and he was definitely not boring.
