This was a commissioned portrait of an adorable Sheltie named Marlee. She is 11 years old and her owner wanted to have a portrait of her. The top left portrait is of when she was just a pup on the day they brought her home and the drawing on the bottom right corner is of her "killing" her favorite stuffed bunny.

UPDATE: Sadly, beautiful Marlee passed away at home in the loving arms of her owners on Father's day 2007. She lives on forever in the hearts of those who loved her.

I decided to try something new with this one and scanned the WIP often enough to put it to music. I gave Marlee's owner a CD with the drawing. She loved it. It was so fun to make and I think turned out really well. Check it out below and thanks for stopping by!!
