  1. Howie is wonderful, Suzanne! He looks so real one could expect him to bark at any time! Those friendly and curious eyes make me want to go right down to Humane Society and see if they have any "Howie's."

  2. Dear Suz!... Another "doggone" great canine portrait.

    Howie's eyes are penetrating. Your full frontal up close pose forces the viewer into a position of conversation with this shaggy heart-stopper! Bravo!

    Good Painting... and Happy New Year Suz!

    Warmest regards and hugs!

  10. Awww, I love Howie! He's almost like a cartoon dog in features, that loveable, classic dog of childhood that I imagine, but brought to life under your brush. I know the owner was thrilled with the painting.
