This stunning girl is named Flattery. Some of you may know her from the delightful Tales and Tails blog. I painted her sister Bunny a year and a half ago, so this time it was Flattery's turn. What a face! Another first - this is the first time I've ever painted a pink background - FUN!

She looks like she is ready for a run in the park with excitement in her eyes!

Another wonderful, smiling face! And I love that painting of Bunny with the dramatic shadow. I think yours are my favorites from the 30-day challenge so far.

Wonderful dog portrait! You have put so much life and expression into her - she looks like she is about to hop off the canvas!

Oh my gosh! Of all the dogs so far in this challenge - and there have been quite a few! - this might be my extra super fave. Such a great moment you've captured here!
