    Our little pup girl was Abby. The main reason I was drawn to this was the color of your pups hair. Abby was blond with brown eyes and pink brown nose. She was a stray that survived the streets her first 4 months then someone we knew, caught her. I worked finding homes for lost pups at the time and she was mine to place. But when I went to take pictures of her, she came home with me. She didn’t do well with other dogs, as she had learn to fight for everything by the time we got her, but she loved people. We lost her due to a brain mass which started causing horrible seizures, on March 20, 2023. She was 13. Gosh, she was beautiful and precious to us. But this dog’s colors reminded me a little of her. I may just have to try this for her. I’d imagine you give many people a piece of their beloved pups they can cherish the rest of their lives. That’s an honorable thing to do. Thanks for sharing with us. ✌🏻🤍.

    As someone who has lost confidence since covid and not done a pastel portrait since then, this has given me some excitement to start again. I miss it so much but talk myself out of starting each time. 🙏

      My goodness, I completely understand you. That's so sad to hear, but I hope you find a little spark that allows you to begin something you love. It's all about removing pressure, expectations and rules. Finding our little inner artistic child means we can learn to enjoy art freely and play with it again. I struggle with oil painting in the same way you describe, you're not alone there!
