Comment by Carrie Stuart Parks on January 22, 2009 at 11:49am: Hi all,
I'm looking for photographs of GP puppies to paint. If you have some, (or even adult dogs), and you own the rights to the photograph, and are willing to share, I'd love to paint your dogs. I'll scan the painting as a thank you. Original paintings will be offered at the GPCA National. If you have photos for me, please contact me directly: carrie@stuartparks.com
Blessings,
Carrie

Comment by Marion-Silvia Diener on November 20, 2008 at 4:10pm: Your mother is very talented! :)

Comment by Maud on November 20, 2008 at 1:13pm: Hi Marion,
It is actually my mother who is the painter. So no credit for me.

Comment by Marion-Silvia Diener on November 20, 2008 at 8:15am: Maud, I just noticed the beautiful paintings of Maud. They are absolutely fantastic. I wish I could paint like this and if I could, all my paintings would be of Pyrs :)

Comment by Maud on October 10, 2008 at 12:03pm: When you add a picture you should first make it max 450 pixels wide or else it is out of shape.
And for artworks we don't want that of course. ;-)
