Pappy
Mixed-breed Spaniel
10" X 8" pen and ink
2012
Another found dog!
"Pappy
is about 12 years old. My son found him in the woods in December
2001, with a broken leg and heartworms. He recovered fully and has become my
husband's dog. Pappy loves people, but does not always play well with other
dogs. He has always been terrified of thunderstorms and other loud noises. He
is still very energetic and loves to go for long walks. In the evenings he can
most often be found on my husband's lap."

"Pappy’s portrait is wonderful! You captured not only his
likeness but his personality as well. When I saw your portraits in Bill
Henderson’s book [All My Dogs: A Life],
I knew I wanted to have a portrait of Pappy. Your suggestions were very helpful
and your work is amazing! Thank you so much –"
