But I'm so proud of my husband's talent as an artist, not to mention my gratitude in having a portrait of me and the Mighty Atlas that I will have forever.  He has been working on this for over a year, you can see Atlas' front left leg is still there, but as he completed the painting recently, he left it from the original sitting.

That is stunning!! I love, love, love itlaughing Please tell your husband what an incredible artist he is. The title...made me cry-so very true and just perfect.

Joan and Lily

Our beautiful Lily was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in her front leg on 12/14/11 at age 8 and had amp on 12/16/11. She completed 5 rounds of carbo. She was so brave and kicked cancer's butt daily! She lived life fully for 4 years, 3 months, and 15 days after her amp. My angel is a warrior princess. I miss her so much.

What a talent! And his love for you and Atlas certainly shows in this portrait.

Kathi and Murphy

Murphy is a five year old Lab/Chessie cross. He was hit by a car on 10/29/12 and became a Tripawd on 11/24/12. On 2/5/13, he had a total hip replacement on his remaining back leg. He has absolutely no idea that he has only three legs!

UPDATE: Murphy lived his life to the fullest, right up until an aggressive bone lesion took him across the Rainbow Bridge on April 9, 2015 and he gained his membership in the April Angels. Run free, my love. You deserve it!

That is absolutely beautiful.  He did an awesome job.  And beautiful subject matter as well.  Very special.

Adelaide is a young tripawd Husky, from an injury.  Her amp was on 10/1/12.  She has 4 sisters, Aissa (a senior border collie/chow), Maggie May (a puppy Great Pyrenees), Mathilde and Morrigan and 1 baby brother, Bagheera.  We are all watched over by our angel Brendol, who was dx with OSA 1/30/13, amp on 2/6/13, and left us on 8/20/13.
