I think I'll paint my dog

Hello,

Linda, his eyes look like they could pierce right through steel. No hiding anything from him. No wonder you were transfixed.

When totally confused and overloaded, I often discuss things with my husband Tom (I've drawn and painted him many times). We met 10 years ago, and our 9th wedding anniversary is at the end of April. He would like me to paint the crop that Beth did as a gift to him. These pictures have been "hidden" in a drawer all this time, he's never seen them till now so this question has been resolved.

But.... My list of projects has grown significantly. A fantasy portrait, a nude from life (haven't told Tom about that one yet), a wrinkled kindly gramma covered with flour, a 7-year-old tomboy, a 19-year-old rebellious hippie, and let's not forget the 4- to 6-year-old adorably cute litle girl in the white dress with a bow!

Jean

ps. "Bizzare animal prints?" This brings an image to mind!
