Muffin And Manju: Pet Portrait by kto ART

I love creating pet portraits for people like me who adore their pets and cherish them as the family that they are...
Bruce and his family are no exception, and I am thankful and appreciative that he asked me to paint his precious pooch, Muffin, and cuddly kitty, Manju. It was a tight squeeze, but I was able to get their big personalities together in a 5"x7" canvas. Bruce knew exactly what he wanted, being an artist himself, and even sent me a cut-and-paste computerized vision to help get me started. 
Although I am currently focused on larger paintings, sometimes the most satisfaction derives from painting these minis and capturing the loved ones we hold so dear.
Many Mahalos Bruce!

This coming Thursday, I will get to meet Bruce because I will be painting in the Signature/DeRubeis Gallery at Ko'olina from 3-7pm. Come say "hi!" if you are on Oahu!
