Madeline did a drawing of one of my Border Collies, and a friend from Scotland, who knows her stuff, used the term 'Exceptional', when I showed it to her.

I highly recommend her artistic skills. She did my Star and Cody, brothers from different litters and the result was more than outstanding. I will treasure it forever. In order for this to fit correctly here I had to square up the original picture, which cut off some of Stars head. She used the photo to draw from.

Love this. First it's the guns, then the dogs, then the artwork. My continuum at least!
Your daughter has great talent.

Well, I’m impressed! Just received an email from Mikes daughter, Madeline. She’s completed her commission of the three dogs that I carried my old Trojan behind for the last 30 years.

Working only from photos I emailed her not much longer than a week or so ago. Nice gal. And very talented.

I hope my engraver who is honoring them on same said Trojan renders images half as pleasing. No pressure Bert! Lol.

Thanks Mike, for bringing her talents to our attention. And thank you Madeline, for capturing their likenesses so faithfully.

So good to keep them alive forever as works of art.

Thanks everyone for the kind sentiments. I’ll pass this on to Madeline. It will make her very happy!
