Its Sunday am. What should I paint next?

this is Linus, my daughter's cat. Lazy, even in play.  You may have seen him floating over Central park in  "Flying Dream."  Anyway, I owe Meghan a portrait for creating and maintaining  my Pepper Portraits website.  I think I might add a ball-bell toy in the far right corner.  What do you think?

Don't blow it!

With one painting awarded Best of Show, Judges Award and People's Favorite; the same painting reproduced into giclee with four prints already sold; another painting used on the cable show BAR RESCUE;  an artist demo on landscapes published in Ann Kullberg's Colored Pencil Magazine, and yet another painting to grace the cover of the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association, one could say that things are going well for Pepper Portraits LLC.  Yet, I've been doing this long enough to realize that a cluster of good fortune usually comes after months of drought and grueling work. Maintaining momentum is the trick.

Accepted!

I am very proud to announce, Who Rescued Whom is accepted into the prestigious 26th International Exhibition on Animals in Art, LSU School of Veterinary Medicine, Baton Rouge LA.  Out of 426 pieces entered into this show, 75 were chosen. This is one of my favorite paintings. The lighting, the subject and a hefty sprinkle of luck came together to create this image.
Wish Willy and Tucker luck on their trip to Louisiana!

Who Rescued Whom wins People's Choice Award

This piece won Best in Show at the recent CPSA District Chapter 119 exhibition.  It also won People's Choice.  Sometimes I get it right.

"Who Rescued whom?" Framed and in the gallery window.

Finished, framed and in The Row House Gallery  window. Nancy Meyers, Row House framing designer extraordinaire, stands behind Who Rescued Whom? Next week on to the next venue, the CPSA Chapter 119 Exhibition in Mariemont OH.  See us there.
