This portrait is extra special for a couple reasons... First, this is a portrait of my best friend’s dog, Leo. I met Leo the first week Liz brought him home when he was an itty bitty puppy that could fit in the palm of my hands. 🐶 Second, this is the first painting I have worked on, let alone completed, since losing Janie three months ago. After everything happened, I completely stopped working on any artwork until about a month ago when I picked back up with this portrait. It feels good to have a new piece completed.
Thank you for trusting me to capture Leo’s personality in this portrait. I am beyond honored that this will be hung in your house. 🥰
