Artist's Comments

Finally, I have something to show for all my time!

A good friend and neighbor (she owns a really neat natural health company - [link] - check it out!) recently lost her German Shepherd, Casey.
It's always hard to lose a pet, but this situation had an extra element of sadness; Casey had multiple health issues, and after struggling with them for years, letting her go became the only way to end her pain.
So I wanted to do something for my friend, Leanne, (who also happens to be :iconalbusaumlupus: 's mom), in honor of Casey...

this is what became of that effort!

Photoshop - 12ish hours...

I'm still working my tail off on the Werewolf Calender image; it's to this detail but about twice the size, and has more going on in it o.o... *faint*

oh, and download for full view ^^

The eyes are absolutely stunning! Such a great pic, it's so obvious you painted it with your heart =)

Extinction is more than the end of something with a long run in the past. Extinction is murdering everything that would have evolved from that species in the future.

Don't walk behind me, I may not lead. Don't walk in front of me, I may not follow. Just walk beside me, and be my friend.
