 This is Mac, he is actually called Scruffy McDuff after the dog in the Rory story books by Andrew Wolfe and Tom Cole.


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!

Raffle prizes for Cat charities

So I have been busy this year. With the Corona virus Pandemic, lots of charities were struggling for funds to keep going. To do my bit I offered a pet portrait as a prize for two charities. 
Bart's Legacy Cat Sanctuary and The Yorkshire Cat Rescue.
The winner for Bart's was Bex


That led to another person donating money and getting a portrait of her grumpy cat, Rosie.

and I have just done Sugar for the winner of the Yorkshire Car Rescue Raffle...
She was a cutie with her little pink tongue sticking out!
So some money raised for charities in these uncertain times.....
