Dog Portraits
In 2001, I began a series of paintings inspired by my mother's Jack Russell Terrier, Millie. Her expressions of joy, sorrow, fear, love, humor and soulfulness found their way into my heart and onto my canvas. This led to 20 years of painting animal portrait commissions. An honor and gift to create this art work, inspired by our most precious companions.
