My latest sample painting of Dayna! My hope is to bring some exposure to pets that have been in shelters for way to long and need to find their furever home.
Below is the Facebook post and photos that inspired this pet portrait.

Original Facebook Post from Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland
WE NEED YOUR HELP: Today is day #359 for Dayna at the ARLGP. Next Friday, she will be here for ONE YEAR. She is 4-years-old.
SHE DESERVES A HOME. She’s crate-trained and knows her basic commands. She walks beautifully on her gentle leader and has a minor obsession with squeaky toys of all shape, color, and size. YES, Dayna needs to be the ONLY PET in her home. But THAT'S OKAY, we know there’s a pet-less home out there that could soak up all of Dayna’s sweet kisses and belly rubs. She’s silly and playful, and we are constantly smiling in her presence because of her bubbly personality. We think she’d do best in a country home, where she has space to roam with her people and lounge on some sunny grass.
PLEASE HELP DAYNA BY SHARING THIS POST. The power of social media has done it before, let's do it again! If you are interested in meeting Dayna, PLEASE VISIT US and ASK TO MEET HER (she is not on the main adoption floor).
Thank you, ARLGP friends and family. Let's get this girl HOME!

I started Ramma’s portrait a couple weeks ago in an effort to bring awareness to all the amazing pets at shelters along with the people who help them. Since then I think she has been adopted from the Animal Refuge League of Greater Portland. ?? 
Her painting will now be a part of my sample collection I lovingly show at events to promote my services.
Ramma is an 8x8 oil painting.
