Day 16/ 30 Dogs in 30 Days Painting Challenge

"Kaylee" oil, 8 x 10

Meet Kaylee.

Kaylee belongs to Ashlee O'Neill but spends lots of time with her granddog parents, Kevin and Sabine.  I have known the O'Neill family for over a decade and it was such a pleasure to paint their adorable dog.

 Here's what Sabine has to say about Kaylee: "Kaylee is 7 yrs old. She is a sheltie and is considered one of the smartest breeds around. Since she is basically a work dog she tends to herd things like people and golf carts when the numbers exceed 2. Loud noises get her running circles around the house such as when there is thunder or if I'm running my blender in the am to make my morning smoothies!"


Thank you so much Sabine and Kevin for sharing your photo of Kaylee... it was a pleasure to paint her!

I have joined in with over 240 other artists on fellow artist Leslie Saeta's blog. click here to link to the challenge.

Thanks to everyone who have sent me cute dog photos! I'm having a great time painting and hearing about all these sweet companions.

If I get to the end of the challenge and I haven't painted your dog. I will try to continue the challenge until all the dogs are painted and only one dog per owner. I might not be able to paint one everyday... I know I'll need a break at the end of this challenge, but I will keep the dog series going. 

Each painting is painted on either 8 x 10 inch or 8 x 8 inch canvas board with quality oil paints and varnished. The price is $140 + (shipping and CT sales tax). Unframed.

with much gratitude,
Linda
