This month's category is 'Animal', the theme of the competition is 'My four-legged friend(s)'. For this challenge we want a pet portrait. Cats, dogs, horses, rabbits, hamsters,guinea pigs are all good; or maybe you have a pet pig or goat at home? If you do not have a pet of your own, paint a friend's or familiy member's pet. Please do not post paintings of wild animals, unless you own a pet lion... What we also do not want are animals in the landscape, this is a portrait challenge.

As usual, you can enter 2 paintings. Please read the rules before you post. Closing date is the 25th October 2018.

Happy painting!

'I was born in Connecticut, grew up in South Florida and spent summers in the North Carolina Mountains.  I currently live in Marietta Georgia, just outside of Atlanta.  I graduated from the University of Florida with a BA in Education. I operated a family day care for 21 years so that I could stay home with my own 2 children. We traveled every summer with the kids and tried to visit every National Park. Most of my paintings are inspired by the photos I took on these adventures. I am now painting and teaching pastel classes and workshops full time. I am represented by several galleries in the Southeast as well as several online galleries. I am a Member of Excellence in the Southeastern Pastel Society and a Signature Member of the Pastel Society of America.'
