A few years ago, a friend of mine informed me that one of his dogs had passed away and asked if I could do a painting of her. And I did:
"Zoyee"
Unfortunately, a couple months ago, another one of his dogs passed away and my services were called upon and I happily agreed to paint another picture:
"Lucky"
Although its always sad losing a pet or loved one, a custom painting is a great way to keep their memory alive and I'm always happy to help.
