great event June 25th at Montrose Beach Dog Friendly Area (Wilson

Art Debuts at Licensing Int'l in NYC! |
 |
As you read this I will be in New York exhibiting my designs
for the first time at the International Licensing Show, June
21-23. I hope to find companies interested in licensing my designs
for a variety of products from housewares to textiles, stationery,
pet-related products and publishing. On display I'll have several
themed groupings of available images: "FOUR LEGGED'S"
- an assortment of dogs and cats in a variety of breeds and poses,
many with branding potential under Anne's "Izzy & Friends"
and "Alice & Friends" design concept. "HAIRLINES"
& "FOLKS YOU KNOW" - a grouping of uplifting personality
snapshots anchored by my popular 'Woman with Big Dreams' and
'Beautiful Bald Headed Man' designs." I was also lucky enough
to have a graphic of my Mixed Breeds painting featured in the
May Issue of Licensing Magazine which previews the show.

Turns One...When Will the Chewing End!? |

The
muse with her painting, "Alice and the Dancing Trees".
As many of you know we took this little gal in last September
as a foster puppy and adopted her in October. She is the happiest
little dog I ever met --We decided that her birthday would be
on the day her 40# bag of puppy food was gone, we also knew she
was probably born some time in June since that was when she and
the rest of her siblings were found in a box in an alley on a
hot June day. So she turned 1-Year Old and started Adult Food
on June 7th. She loves to eat holes in blankets (swiss cheese
style), and chase bugs and tennis balls in the yard. She adores
her very patient older and wiser sister Izzy (who I'm sure would
constantly roll her eyes if she could) and is endlessly intrigued
with Oliver the Cat.
