Hello Debra,

I'm a long-time member here, but missed this thread when it appeared 4 years ago! I'd be interested to know how this is working out for you now. I looked at your blog (spectacular work, by the way!) and saw that you're still actively pursuing the pet paintings. I do pet paintings from time to time on commissions that come to me, but mainly oils, and have not pushed it aggressively since it is not cost effective for me. I can see where watercolor makes a lot more sense. I have one quick question - just a minor curiosity really - why 5x7 as opposed to slightly larger, 6x9 say? It seems to me that the labor and materials would come to about the same and the client might see it as a better deal. Or, it could be priced higher, perhaps $125. Again, just curious. And again, I love your work, the stylishness and the way you capture the dogs' personality and vitality.
