“Phoebe,” 8x10, commissioned poodle pet portrait in acrylic on canvasboard, private collection (THANK YOU!).
Phoebe’s photos arrived last summer with a letter that brought me to tears. It was such a beautiful testament about connecting with the soul of an animal, carrying a piece of them with you, even when they were gone. I wanted to push all my other projects aside, and paint her immediately – it felt so heartless to ask my client to wait months for her painting. But that she did, patiently.
Thank you – not just to Phoebe’s mom, but to all of you, who are patiently waiting your turn.
Your turn for a painting - I’m booking into October 2008 now.
Or maybe even your turn for a reply - yes, I am still buried in email inquiries – but tonite I am going to whittle them down substantially! I’ve got a pan of warm brownies and a quiet house – just the sorts of makings for high productivity!!
I continue to be astounded by the response my work is generating. I am so very grateful for each of you.
And for my furred little subject’s, each one with a story just as dear as the next.
Keep ‘em coming!!
Thanks, as always, for looking.
And for sharing these paintings with your friends and family,
See you tomorrow,
Kim

"Tabby Kit," 5" x 7", acrylics on a museum quality panel, depicting a tiny little orange striped guy from Morgue File . This painting can be yours for $289, which includes s&h inside the US. And in case you didn't see it, a little doodle of him is also available for sale here . Inquires may come directly to me . Although it certainly doesn't FEEL like spring here (snow and ice and wind chills, brr!), I can tell that spring is coming. The mercury is rising a wee bit each day and the days are getting longer and brighter. Over the weekend we drove with the moonroof open just to feel the sun's meager and oh-so-very-welcome warmth (although the heat in the car was cranked, too, in the interest of full disclosure!). I wanted to work with spring-like colors today, and this little guy was still on my mind , so I grabbed a small panel and got to work. Of course, I also have Poppy to finish and some changes to make to another po
