Pets are family too, and it's always a joy to capture them looking their best, and particularly the bond between pet and their "Mom" or "Dad", or even "siblings". And they make great subjects for photo paintings as well! The top image below is a painting sample done on top of the photo by hand on the computer using many different brushes that simulate traditional oil painting. This painting was done by my painting mentor as I work to bring more techniques into my own painting work for clients.
