Sassy’s Portrait

Well, I have been waiting for a little bit to get this completed but I found the most awesome artist, Taylor Burkum at Bark’m hand drawn portraits.  He is a local artist that I found through a friend of mine.  I decided that I wanted to have Sassy’s picture drawn.  I wanted to do it before I found out cancer but really really wanted to do it after Sassy’s diagnosis.  So when I got my taxes back in Feburary I went and took Sassy down and had him take a few pictures.  Every time I take it for a good shot she plays shy and likes to look away.  So Taylor knew Sassy’s story and didn’t even notice when I took her down to get her pictures that she had 3 legs although I told him.  He said she got along so well.

 

So long story short he made the most awesome picture and I will always always treasure this.

So I am going to plug his business not so that people will do it but because if you want a great artist to draw your dog he is the one I would recommend.     http://www.barkmcanine.com/    or his fb page is facebook.com/barkmcanineportraits

    This is a truly beautiful portrait. He really does capture Sassy’s spirit. You can drown in those gorgeous eyes and I just love that tongue!

    I’ve looked at his website and can see he is amazing at capturing each dog’s unique personality. I’ll have to see how much money I get back from the tax man!

    Thank you so much for sharing the artists details.
