This painting is titled “Portrait of Pru” (26″ x 24″). Her real name is Prudence. She is a great high energy rescue dog, and a massive handful for Danny and Bri. The painting depicts her at a very restful, sober moment, which may not exist in her reality. She is like your child that will never hold still for a photo.

So… did I mention invention? I am currently frame challenged, with that heavily weighing on my mind (we should all have such horrible problems), I decided to paint a frame.  The painting and frame is one piece of wood.  I painted a bit of a 3-D affect and added some bronzy, gold leafy, decorative frills and voila a frame.  I just need to attach a wire and it is ready to hang in the most persnickety of homes.
