...a genuine tender-heart. He even gave me kisses.
Such a loving soul, he is.* * *
Murphy, however, wasn't the only dog in attendance. I mean, have you ever been to an art opening where there were nearly as many dogs as people? At one point I stopped talking, took a deep breath, and smiled. I looked around to witness everyone milling around, socializing, and nibbling on sweet treats and hors d'oeuvres--yes, even the dogs! Oh, what a scene to behold! I loved every second of it.

(yes, this is how excited my hands get when talking about the process of painting these dogs!)
and contemplation,

and general silliness.
All in all, I would say it was a great night with a great turn-out.
And this is how happy it made me feel:
...BECAUSE I LOVE LOVING DOGS! :)

This is so exciting! Seeing all this happening for you is like watching American Idol!!
And I have to tell you - I was so startled to see your Murphy, because he is so like my friend's Murphy who just died - my heart just caught in my throat.
You are a great inspiration to all of us who are hoping to make dreams come true.
BTW< love the new blog look too!
I would have loved to just have shown up and surprised you! This is so exciting and you look amazing!
