Lewie

This is Lewie. His owner took him in age 11 when his original owner moved and couldn't take him with him (his original owner did come and visit him often though because he loved him so much) He was a Bengal and was very vocal, following his owner around and very demanding but was loved so much by both his owners. Sadly he passed away 9 months after his second owner started looking after him with an aggressive cancer. He is sadly missed by his owners and they have lots of lovely memories of him.

Lewie's owner won a raffle for a pet portrait via Bart's Legacy Cat Sanctuary, way back in the spring. She has been very patient waiting for me to finish it. It was a pleasure and a joy to paint this gorgeous boy.

He is my friends dog, a Border terrier and still not a year old.

Perry

 


What an absolute privilege to paint such a handsome boy for Judy, my lovely Blogger friend. She lost Perry this year but he left footprints on her heart. 

Of course, Quality Control had to check it before I posted it to the USA!
