Cat Sitter in the City: Dear Kiki Creates A Canine Masterpiece

This is my latest pet portrait of little dog buddy I am really happy with how it turned out and more importantly so is buddy ;) Christine purchased it as a gift and was sweet enough to mention it on her blog Cat Sitter in the City

I just got back to New York, and one of the first things I did was give my friend Bernie her Christmas gift. She is heading out of town for the holidays, and I was dying to see her face when she opened her present, a custom pet portrait of her dog Buddy. I commissioned a San Francisco-based artist who works under the name Dear Kiki and has a shop on Etsy to paint the portrait. Buddy was impressed, and he spent a lot of time admiring the painting, getting as close to it as possible and sniffing it. Dogs can tell a lot about art by sniffing it."Dear Kiki did an amazing job of capturing my essence," Buddy said after he got a good look at and a good whiff of the painting.I agree. Isn't it amazing?
