Done! That was my first pool... I thought it would be easy... it was easy, but time consuming! There is a little bit of a glare on the white dogs from my studio lights... did not really notice it until the pastel was shipped out. It made it to New Orleans safe and sound for the surprise birthday party. And this was the big surprise! I thought she would have figured it out since I came over to take the photos.. but I guess our cover story worked! She claims it was a total surprise!

I am off to the Aiken Steeplechase tomorrow... along with a few stops around the area for clients... so I will not be posting for the next week or so. Hopefully I will get the painting that I did for their poster sold!!! I will try to post the poster when I get back! Happy Spring!

Coming right along... Joe was a challenge. That brindle coat! And his white areas had lots of spots and swirls. I love the way his feet came out!
