My dogs are such great models, I love to follow them around the yard with my camera. This is my baby girl, Train. I love the graceful curve of her neck. She is as beautiful as a fairy tale.

This is a bittersweet commissioned portrait of a beautiful and much loved greyhound who recently passed away. I wanted this painting to have a sense of peace about it, and I hope it brings his family comfort.
