A Furry Little Update
Just the other day I received the best thing in the mail...the custom pet portraits that I ordered from artist Hannah Rowlands. If you saw my earlier post then you already know that Hannah is drawing these sweet portraits to help raise funds for a non-profit shelter in her area that helps homeless pets. What's not to love about that!
Anyhow, I promised to share pictures when I received the portraits she drew of our dogs Stella and Orey. They turned out SO cute! I can't wait to frame and hang them in our home. If you ordered a wee sketch of your pet to help Hannah on her mission I hope you'll share a link to it too. I'd love to see!
If you missed my earlier post, no need to fret. There is still time to order a custom portrait of your sweet furry family member or commission one for the dog-lover on your holiday shopping list. Since posting a couple weeks ago, Hannah has already met and exceeded her fundraising goal (I know a lot of you helped to make that possible...I'm so excited)...and I think it's awesome that she's going to keep going until December!
Also if you have a quick second to spread a little extra goodwill around blogland, I'd love for you to join me in popping over to Hannah's blog to send her our 'get well' wishes. She's been in the hospital battling a painful kidney infection but has been bravely sketching on for this cause regardless. She sure deserve a friendly virtual get well hug, don't you agree?! xo Ez

I can't believe she's still working despite being so ill! Your portraits turned out unbelievably cute. Can't wait to order some as gifts when I get paid. :)
So adorable. I love seeing how artist capture an animal's personality. :)
Your adorable pencil sketch of that little doggy stopped me in my tracks - love your style - Alison
Thanks for your sweet comments friends! I just wanted to make sure that it was clear that these drawings were created by Hannah Rowlands...not me. But I'm flattered if any of you thought they were my work. Hannah's such a talent! :-) xo Ez
