Paintings With Soul

"Millie," 10" x 20", acrylics on a Raymar panel, portrait of an Old English Sheepdog, private collection (thank you!). Let me know if you would like one of these portraits starring your pet  (and yes, I offer gift certificates for holiday gift giving). It's time to make the donuts. Or rather, stuff the turkey!
