* I have to go get a haircut. My hair got way out of control on break and I cannot postpone this one more day. I’m as shaggy as I’ve been in a long time. So, blogging’s gonna be light this afternoon.
In the meantime, I received a belated birthday present today from a great friend…
* Oscar loved it! He was sniffing it and staring at it, but I didn’t get a picture of that, so here he is next to the painting…
In case you’re wondering, you can find the artist by clicking here.

That is priceless. My father in law painted similar portraits of my daughters and I wouldn’t trade them for anything in the world. It’s a very good likeness! That’s so so great!

That’s very good! At first, I actually thought it was a photo. Is this what’s called a “barking likeness”?

Very good likeness:) No wonder Oscar admires it so. When I saw the first pic, it immediately reminded me of this book from my childhood-

I need to get a haircut as well, but I guarantee you Oscar that I will never have as many fans as you do. Great painting.

Wonderful portrait of a terrific dog. Oscar really seems to like it, and that’s really what counts.
