Nothing to be sorry about.




I see what you are saying about the legs and such. I agree. It just made me laugh and reminded me of my original question.

At any rate, we have decided since the boys have big obnoxious portraits of themselves already, that Liza and Bailey could take center stage on this one, I have several of her and Bailey that I really liked.

Hi Mary. I've meant to comment on this for a while now but neglected to. I'm so sorry for your loss. I know how I would feel if something happened to my Zoe. Will you get another dog? I feel that it would be very nice to be a pet in your house, you seem to radiate love and warmth in your writing and artwork.

Today I'm faced with a sad situation also. I have an appointment to photograph a little girl with her pet cat. Unfortunately the cat had to be put to sleep two days ago, she was very old (18) and the session had been put off by the client. They wanted to wait for a certain type of flower to bloom in their backyard. I'm hoping that they have some decent photos of the kitty, and not looking forward to this.

I think your tribute to Bailey is beautifully done, please post it in "unveilings" when you are finished.

Jean

Hi Mary,

I just spotted this thread while trying to catch up on a few weeks of missing Forum posts. SO very sorry to hear about your dog. If I were you I'd paint a small head and shoulders, maybe a 12" x 12", just to have hanging around the house. You might find that your children want to "borrow" it for a while, or of course it can hang in your studio.
