This was a hard piece for me to create. It wasn’t so much the labor, as it was the emotion. This beautiful boy was my Bacchus. He was one of the most exuberant and loving dogs I have ever known. Like all Great Danes, he had his goofy side. But he also had an intuitive understanding of the feelings in the people and animals around him. He was a sensitive.
We lost him way too soon to bone cancer. It was devastating to see a dog with so much life and joy be brought down so quickly. We did not let him suffer at all. We sent him away peacefully BEFORE the pain meds stopped working. It seemed the right thing to do. It’s strange that I do not remember much about his passing other than seeing my daughter drape her little body over his and tell him goodbye. It is like I’ve blocked a lot of it out, but the tears came then and they are coming now as I look back.
Bacchus visits me in my dreams quite often. More than any other animal that I have ever had the privilege to care for. The visions of him are always very real. I smell him and feel his warmth. I am keenly aware of his presence and energy. I have the feeling of actually being “with him”. It is so intense that I expect to wake up with a tuft of his hair in my hands. I miss him and do believe we will be reunited someday.
For now, I simply share him with others in my words, pictures and in my art…

A dog in the hand is worth two online! This beautiful furry guy is sitting on my painting table being lovingly hand embellished and hand signed before he makes his journey to California to be displayed in the home of “Charlie” the bearded collie.

Same dog….Different portrait! I was asked in April to create a Color Fusion of this little guy who is a mix between a Lhasa Apso and a Poodle. The long haired dogs are a real challenge, but we were both pleased with the result. Then right before the holiday he sends me some new pictures of his pup. You guessed it….he wanted a “before and after”. So cute!

It is really great that I get to earn my living with my art, but it is even greater to see the joy that my work brings to others! This moment captured by one of my collectors, who purchased two custom dog portraits for her sister, is absolutely PRICELESS! That last image actually made me tear up. She clearly loves her dogs and I love what I do!

What dog breed does this look like to you? This is a custom pet portrait of a mixed breed dog. She did not know exactly what the mix is. Based on this artwork, what do you think?
