"OMG!!!! I LOVE IT!!!! I don't know what to say!!!! It is so beautiful!!! Thank you so much!! Loosing Watson was the hardest. I had no warning. I got up and went to the grocery store, told him I would be back with him some frosty paws, blueberries, and bananas. I came home he didn't greet me, I looked for him he was in his spot where he waits for me in front of the window so he can see. He past almost 2 months after his brother. I don't think he missed his brother, they were so close, just 5 yrs apart. I'm thankful I have such friends. I want to thank you for taking the time to do this, I will cherish it forever!!!
Ok, I just watched it on you tube and I cried. You really pulled him out of the paper and paint. It was so special to see you do the painting I must admit. I would recommend that to anyone... I want you to know how alive he looks in this painting. I would tell anyone if they were thinking of getting a painting done, to do it. You would be the one I would send them to."
