Gypsy

Midnight Dreamer Studio This is the first commissioned portrait of an American Pitbull Terrier named Gypsy :) Hopefully the first of many more to come. She is a beloved pet of a friend of mine I met met on a forum, she is too cute :) I hope you like this portrait! Here is a tidbit of fact for you to chew on~ The American Canine Temperament Testing Association, which sponsors tests for temperament titles for dogs, reported that 95% of all APBTs that take the test pass, compared with a 77% passing rate for all breeds on average. The APBT's passing rate was the fourth highest of all the breeds tested. ~*~By the way I just got an email from my friend and she said that I captured Gypsy's look perfectly and she just loves it and can not wait to get the original on her wall!~*~ I am really happy because this is the first time i have drawn some ones animal :)
