When I painted it, I just washed in the background - It was a bit too thin, and I will be touching it up in the next day or so - I'll send an update!

Remember if you have an animal rescue that you would like me to donate a painting to, just let me know! I'd love to work with you.

Thanks for your interest!!

Shiba Inu Charity Painting

Shiba Inu

Original Oil Painting

4" x 6" - Oil on Panel, unframed

Every bit of the money raised by this auction will help dogs receive the treatment they need to live long healthy lives - please be generous!

Now, I have to admit that I had never heard of a Shiba Inu dog until they contacted me to do an auction for them. They are gorgeous dogs, sort of like a small akita. They come from Japan.

The last auction, which I did not put on my blog (shame on me) raised $160 for Papillon rescue! I hope this one does as well. It is already up to $66 and I just started the auction a few hours ago.

100% OF ALL FUNDS RAISED WILL BENEFIT RESCUE AT

Thanks for your interest in my artwork - and for your wonderful emails!

Still Life Reworking

This is a still life painting that I did a long time ago. I have never been totally satisfied with it and I am going to spend some time reworking it this week. So, this is the "before" picture.


In a side note, over the years I have colleced hundreds of art books and videos. I love books! I am getting ready to move, and have decided that there are many of my books and videos that I no longer look at. I am sure there are artists out there that would use them more than I do. So, I am listing quite a few books and videos on eBay. Not as many as I thought I would, I am really having a hard time parting with any of them, but there may be something you or a friend might be interested in. I have about 20 listed right now, and am getting some videos ready to be listed. I'll be adding things just about every day, since it takes me forever to get them ready ;)

If you're interested, here is a link to the list of books & videos that I am selling on eBay - there will be more added soon! http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZaportraitforyouQQhtZ-1

Thanks for your interest in my artwork!
