My dog has been scalped!

All I wanted was my dog to get a little trim and shampoo. When we went to pick her up, she was unrecognizable. The groomer had accidently cut her hair too short in the back and so to even it out, she had to to clip her short everywhere. Thankfully the hair is starting to grow out some.


On my etsy site, I am selling watercolor cards and magnets as well as prints and handpainted tile that I have done. I can customize note card packs to reflect any 8 designs that you would like.

Here is a card example.

My dog needs a haircut

Well, this is my first entry on my new blog. I adopted my dog about a year ago from the Humane Society. My boys wanted to adopt her right away but I was a little hesitant as I wanted to get a feel for the dog and not just choose her because she was cute. She was cute and sweet but she was in a strange environment at the Humane Society and so that may not have been her true nature. Anyway, my boys pleaded to get her and so I relented. I am glad they talked me into it because she is so good natured and a little dynamo. She wants to play all the time . She is getting very shaggy and I am looking for a groomer as we speak. People say Belle looks like the dog from the Wynn Dixie movie. She does a little bit I guess.

I like to paint and so this photo inspired me to paint the 9 X 12 painting below. I titled it "Be my Friend?"
