Linda has done two pastels our beloved dogs, Jade and William, and we are so delighted with them. She has been able to capture their essence from just a few photos and really bring them to life. The drawings are very special reminders of all the happy times we had with them. Thank you Linda for using your precious energies to create such beautiful memories for us.
This beautiful dog was saved from immanent death in a kill shelter. She had no name. PennyPaws rescue asked for donations to help her and name her. We named her Mollie. What a wonderful privilege to name such a special dog. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2025/05/27/sponsor-a-pennypaws-dog-dog-of-the-day/
Poor Freddy died in Romania before he could be fostered or adopted. He was an older dog and his sad end made us sorrowful. I felt he deserved to be remembered, so tried to draw an image of him. I wish we had been able to offer him a home. I wish he had felt loved and special. This is the best I can do to honour him. https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2023/09/19/freddy/ https://pennypawsrescue.org.uk/2024/10/17/rip-poor-little-freddy/
I am truly delighted to raise awareness of this wonderful Facebook page which highlights the plight of dogs desperately in need of foster and adoption. I am so proud they featured my picture of Dottie, a beautiful pregnant dog who was rescued on the streets of Romania and gave birth safely to her puppies in a private shelter. There are so many dogs needing loving caring homes. I really hope that the portraits I do, bring out the dog’s beauty and enable it to be seen. It’s quite amazing how drawing the pictures touch and bring out the dog’s deeper, often hidden emotion. Hopefully they reveal something more of the dog . Drawing the dogs brings me such a great sense of connection and enormous love for them.
