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.
