Now, who in their right mind can look at this portrait and say that dog's don't smile?!
Having a professionally rendered portrait of Bootsie has long been a dream of mine, and now I have made it a reality! I am so happy with it!
I began to seriously go about the task of searching for a highly skilled artist, and this was a quest that went on for months. Then I came across the web site of an artist living in Wales, by name of Melanie Phillips, and I was astounded by her talent.
Please visit her website at:

You will see exactly what I mean when you stroll through the Gallery of Pet Portraits! If you'd like, you can view Bootsie there, and see how her portrait progressed in stages! Just click on the "Galleries" link at the bottom of the page, then click the "Dog" portrait gallery link. Bootsie's portrait progression is found in Dog Portrait Gallery Six.
I think you will agree, Melanie Phillips is talented beyond measure!

What a beautiful portrait, it looks just like her. At first glance I thought it was a photograph. Great site of Melanie's work. Thanks for the link to it.

If this is what your doggie looks likes, no wonder you feel the way you do. He is absolutely beautiful. I have one cat who I adore so much, gets into all sorts of mischief but wouldnt be without her. Beautiful Journal again here.
