….Brenna….
….what does every art show need? ….that’s right, a really big oversized border collie portrait….this is quite possibly the most difficult painting I have ever attempted, primarily due to the fact that trying to paint Brenna is like trying to cover a Clash song, it will never come close to the real thing…..but for me that’s all the more reason to try….(the hardest part is getting her to sit still)….
“Honest and Sincere”
