Inspiration:

All my dogs have added so much to my life and I realized how they are all really angels  providing lots of love and kisses. So I use my artistic talent to do doggy portraits and I always fall in love with each pet I do! I hope you enjoy my paintings.

I now live about 15 minutes from the Performing Animal Welfare Society and have gotten involved in doing paintings of their elephants for their fundraisers. I am still learning about the plight of captive elephants and other wildlife. I am so saddened that so much wildlife habitat is being lost and that so many animals are abused and used for monetary gain. Please do all you can to educate yourself on these topics!
