I did this one for Valentines Day, but he kinda fits in with any old day.  I really enjoyed “sewing” him together.  :)

About Shakti Gawain

Raised by atheists who taught her to question everything, she went through an existential crisis after a romantic breakup, which led her on a pilgrimage to India. Her experiences inspired the book Creative Visualization, which became an international best seller. She has been featured in Time magazine and has appeared on such shows as Oprah, Good Morning Americav and The Larry King Show. She currently lives in California with her husband Jim Burns.

      Thanks so much, Linda! I’ll have another one for you tomorrow. **giggle** I’m glad I’m not the only one having fun here.

    This series is absolutely beautiful, Beth. I could look at hundreds done this way. You have captured expressions on these dogs and made them your own. Absolutely wonderful ideas!

      Thanks, Leslie! I have really been enjoying animals “ala Beth”. They are so expressive, so they make good subjects for my kind of art. :)
