The Kiss
What a treat to paint my niece and new nephew (a combined wedding gift from other aunts & uncle). Basing the painting on their stunning engagement photo, of course the snowfall, streetlights & Chicago's Union Station was a must-have in the painting, as well as the designs in the fallen snow (so much fun to paint!).

Feline brothers Bubbles & Buttons
These two handsome felines are brothers. Bubbles & Buttons. The hats satisfied the request to place B&B in some kind of a costume. And also pointed to their different personalities: Bubbles in something a little more 'formal' and maybe Buttons a little more 'flouncy'.

Schnauzers under a LuckyStar
One is named "Lucky" and one is named "Star", and both are very much loved!
Lucky was painted on his play bed with his favorite blue toy (and others). As well, Star is surrounded by his favorite things too. Apparently, Star would rather go for a walk than eat!! (Hard to imagine!)

Most Beloved Maine Coon
The Maine Coon is a native New Englander, a popular mouser & farm cat & most likely, a ship's cat. But THIS Maine Coon named "Gandalf the Grey" is, simply put, Most Beloved.
