Pastel 20"x 12"
In fairy tales, the Princess always gets rescued - and for this one it all came true!
In her first 3 years she had two owners, and both gave up on her. At the end she was pretty confused - she didn't know how to walk on a leash, she wanted to play but was a trifle too enthusiastic, and cats? The less said the better. She was dumped, and rescued.
However THIS TIME she ended up living in a castle (a small one) in the country, like a princess should! She's made friends with Mirage, a very crotchety 13 yr old Rottweiler, and now they both keep their mom warm at night. The cats have sharply shown her who's boss and she's learned to respect them. And she gets to go hiking in the woods every day. Who could want for more?
Her mom says she's not the best educated princess but is so loving she's irresistable, check out the eyes. Best of all her friendly nature has won over Mirage, they're friends and because of that Mirage has started to enoy her old age, becoming more relaxed and content. A little bit of magic surely came with this Princess...and of course they're all living happily ever after.

Our dog does that wussy thing with his paws - and he's a Staffie, how embarrassing is that..? Lovely lady
I like the photo with Jenny sitting - nice parallel of position and eyes from the two animals. By the way, Jenny is still a favorite with you know who (L). Marvin
Princesse is a really loving dog and that shows in the eyes of her portrait. That is the exact pose she takes when she looks at me from the couch while I type on the computer, wondering why I am paying attention to the keyboard and screen instead of her. Unfortunately she does not go hiking everyday as say but on weekends and vacations. Life is just too busy. But she can play in the dog run four times a day.
This is a wondeful portrait of a lovebug waiting for attention. There is just so much soul into those labrador eyes. You could almost feel her waiting for her mommy.
Liz gave me the 2 portraits she made of Princesse. I will go frame hunting over the Holidays.
