Finally got Allie's portrait framed and delivered. This is one of my favorite portraits I have done so far because Allie is a special dog. She is not only a beloved pet but also a service dog to a beautiful lady who happens to be in a wheelchair. Allie has lots of jobs to do around the house each day to help her mistress out. She picks things up off the floor when asked and actually opens the back door and lets herself outside. Her 'mom' keeps a beautiful home filled with all kinds of artsy things, alot of which she has made herself. This morning when I walked in, the house was all decorated for Halloween, including a miniature haunted house, complete with ghosts, pumpkins, lights, and a fireplace! Well, this haunted house was not only handmade by Allie's very creative 'mom', but she also won a blue ribbon for it in a haunted house competition! It was very cool! And she was very happy with Allie's portrait, so that made me happy too. What a great day!
