Me gusta ese retrato, respeto los animales de una manera casi franciscana y me gustan los perros, su mirada dice más, que la de algunas personas.
El fondo es muy bueno, con esos interesantes verdes.
Un saludo.

Thank you Frank, about the colors, I am doing a lot of softening the edges, at least in the distance areas. It seems to work out ok.

Dear Jesus
I can not explain in words what the painting of our Sam means to us. I simply want to thank you for the emotion and caring you have put into the painting, you have captured Sam. He will always be with us now, we love it
Thank you
Tom & Golda
