German Shepherd Dog Portrait : Bubba
completed in May, 2009
Size: 5 x 7″
Medium: Graphite Pencil Drawing
Notes: Each week in 2009, I am giving away one free custom portrait to someone on my blog. The winner is selected based on how their entry inspires me.
Winner of Week #21 was Kellie Mintern, of Mintern’s German Shepherds. She sent in a photo of Bubba, along with a link to his story and updates on him, which I found myself lost in as I went through the entries for the week.

After arriving at my picnic table with my afternoon mail, I reached for my NEXT PIECE to open and there it was……BUBBA………THANK YOU SOOOOOO MUCH LEANNE! I cannot tell you what my heart and soul felt like the moment that I pulled his portrait from the binder…..
I am forever blessed and I told my husband that YOU and BUBBA will be famous one day…. thank you so much…Bubba will be displayed in at my GRAND OPENING this coming Sunday of my new store for PETS 🙂 It was inspirted by BUBBA actually, and having to learn about different natural or organic items for him…..I have gotten quite comfortable with learning about ORGANIC things now…..anyways, YOU my dear will be displayed along with Bubba telling the world about what a fantastic person and artist YOU ARE
GOD BLESS YOU and may you find all your dreams just a sketch away 🙂
LOVE THE PORTRAIT….just love it…..thank you
Kellie
