Basking in the sunshine, Cookie posed like the star she is! Her "owner" (I use quotation marks, because I think they own US not the other way around!) commissioned this portrait of a tiny chihuahua.
I'd forgotten about it, I don't like to post online til my client receives the portrait in the mail and I got busy with other things. But news recently that a chihuahua had been picked up by a hawk and then released unharmed reminded me of tiny Cookie!
Can you imagine what went through that doggie's mind? Terror? Or, for the unflappable type, just enjoyed the ride?
I enjoyed painting Cookie's portrait in colored pencils; she's the first long haired chi I've even done. I hope I'll get more chihuahua commissions, such cute dogs!!

Wonderful portrait! You are so talented. As I've said before, when I get flush, you'll be getting a call to do my Springers (gone and current) :)
Awww, thanks Ande!!! I can't wait to get the commission, because not only will I have fun doing it, but it will mean YOU are on top of the world, too!
