BEST IN SHOW Pet Portraits

For the last seven years, I've painted a custom portrait as an award, for the winner/top fundraiser each year. Mutt Strut is the largest annual fundraiser for the Humane Society of Indianapolis, held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway every year. Reina's became the TOP DOG, because her owner, Laura Michael, worked hard to raise funds through Mutt Strut, and she became their top fundraiser. Reina has quite a story. She went to IndyHumane as a transfer from Indianapolis Animal

One of my best pet portrait client's is Allison, a pet lover, who's adopted many animals over the years. Her newest adoptees are Johnny, a beagle who is blind, and Joss, a Blue Tick Beagle, named Joss who is missing one eye. Allison said "she is truly beautiful". She is rescued many dogs and a cat over the years. She created a fun display shelf of all of her portraits. #doglover #dogart #oilpaintingsofpets #adoption #animal #animalart #customoilpainting #customart #beagle #ca

Sami, of Burbank, CA, commissioned me to paint his dog Matilda (the one with the red coat) and four other pet portraits as a surprise gift for a friend. They are left to right Mia, Jake, Fitch, Matilda and Layla. They are all 8" x 8"'s, painted with oil on canvas. #dogs #bestinshowpetportraits #petportrait #petpaintings #dogportrait #dogart #customdogpainting #animalart #animal #fineartamo #adoption #oilpaintingsanimals

Mutt Strut is the largest annual fundraiser for the Humane Society of Indianapolis, held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway every year. For the last six years, I've painted a custom portrait, as an award, for the winner/top fundraiser each year. 18" x 18" oil on canvas. Cooper and Tuttle are long-time Mutt Strut fans. Their owner, Jim Drew, brought them to Mutt Strut for the past three years to walk the track and support IndyHumane. These two may be very different sizes, but
