Awhile ago, I did a series of a bunch of paintings for Tufts Vet School. They've been hanging in their cafeteria for about a year, and occasionally I'll get emails asking for animal portraits from people who visited. A woman emailed me, interested in hiring me to do a painting of a yellow lab for her daughter's birthday. She told me her favorite colors were pink and purple, and it was super last minute, so I did the best I could with the time I was given. (That's my lovely boyfriend in the background holding it).
