| Brutus Lives Happily Ever After... |
 |
|
Brutus
is living his 'happily ever after'
life thanks to my wonderful client Jean, who
adopted him in February of
2007 from the German
Shepherd Rescue of Central Alabama. I
know many people have their hearts set on
getting a pure bred or strong mix of a
specific breed dog or cat, what you may not
know is that
you can adopt a pure bred from a
Breed Rescue Group. These groups are all over
the country, here is a great list from Save
Our Strays, for more extensive results do
a quick Google
Search
containing your desired breed: "DALMATIAN"
and "BREED RESCUE" and
you will be on your way to saving a dog or
cat who needs a home.
I've been exploring some fun new concepts and
compositions with my Pet Portraits, my
clients and their requests are the
inspiration. Jean told me that Brutus loves
chewing on pig ears, I realized that was
not going to make for a pretty picture so I
improvised with these fun little tags
containing images and words: "Loves Pig
Ears!". Here are some other recent portraits:
Pippin,
Baby, Rex & Scruffles. Order your Pet
Portrait today!

How often do you look at the calendar and
realize your friend or loved one's birthday
is right around the corner and there's no
time to run out and buy a card or gift?
At Cardways.com
and 1800Greetings.com
you can
do both, your Card and Gift
Card (optional) will go out in the mail
complete with
a postage stamp. You also have the
wonderful option to upload and add a photo
and your own personal message. And of course
the reason I mention all of this is that you
can send a card with any of my 70+ designs
available on their site, including "Folks
You Know", "Hair
Lines", and a large selection
of my Dog
Images.
Option 2 is simply visit your Favorite
Retailers directly on-line. Macys, Borders,
Lowes, Barnes &
Noble, Dunkin
Donuts, Pier 1 and
many more...they all offer my Greeting Cards
when you purchase a Gift Card. Once you
select your
Gift Card denomination, just search cards under
"Special Collections" by Artist. Happy
Shopping!
