#12 Nico

3"x3" acrylic on wooden Plaque Painted 9/9/10


I Saw this adorable pup on the Bruised Not Broken Facebook page... Look at that cute face!!!
Here's the excerpt under his photo album:

*****Re-posting: MEET NICO!! Nico is 3 year old showstopper - seriously, this dog is gorgeous! He is neutered, vaccinated and a graduate of obedience training! What a star! Nico has BEAUTIFUL blue/green eyes and clearly has some sort of American Bulldog in him. He is 65lbs and needs a confident owner - fine w/ cats and good with the dogs in his home, just needs proper introduction. Nico likes to exercise and would love a yard, but also loves to snuggle as well :) *****

#11 Linda

I read about "Linda" on the face book Pinups for Pitbulls Page:
excerpt:
***LINDA – A873015 A Volunteer Writes: Lovely Linda is just 3 years old, a 50-pound white and tan pit-mix who has one of the best personalities this volunteer has ever come across. When she came into the shelter she was given the best behavior rating possible: "no concern." So the only thing to wonder about when you spend time with Linda is how one dog is able to give so many kisses! Linda is simply the most loving dog you could hope to find. Whatever brought her to the shelter is behind her-she welcomes everyone who stops to pay attention to her, and when you take her for a walk she thanks you by being as good a girl on leash as she is when you're just sitting with her. Linda is interested in other dogs-friendly and curious, which is her admirable attitude towards life in general. This volunteer canceled her plans for the next day after meeting Linda in order to return and take her for a longer walk and just take in her good vibes. She has that kind of sweet, squooshy face that is irresistible; Linda is everything you could want in a devoted dog; she is ready to start a new life where she is given the chance to be her radiant self with someone who will love her as much as she will love you. ****


word on the internets is that she has been rescued! Click the picture of Linda to go see the original post and to find out more information on this smooshy girl!!!:

ARTSY BULLIES on Etsy!!!!

OK I have my 11th painting, drawn and gessoed... now I have to paint. However in the meantime as promised I have opened my etsy shop go take a peek!



Here's my Profile announcement and policies:
This shop is where I have chosen to sell these paintings, where 90% of the proceeds will go toward the rescues that work so hard to save the lives of those who can not speak up for themselves! I have chose the following three rescues/organizations to donate to: Pinups for Pitbulls, Sweet Bark Pitbull Rescue and Concrete Angels.

here are thier links:

Payment

Shipping
I ship vis USPS if other means are needed send me a note to make other arrangements.
Refunds and Exchanges

No refunds or exchanges. You are buying a one of a kind piece of art, please read the descriptions for size of plaques and to view all the pictures, before purchase to prevent any buyer's remorse. 90% of the proceeds will be immediately donated once received so I can not offer exchanges or refunds.
Additional Policies and FAQs
This is my way of helping out those rescues/ organizations that put it all on the line to save a soul or three or more... I know I can not adopt or save them all, however if the money raised can be put toward good use and to make the life of a pup that much safer and better, then to me it is worth it... The only reason I say 90% instead of 100% is to cover my etsy and paypal fees. I started this because of my love for my own 2 Pitties. They are the loves of my life... Once you allow a bully into your heart you too will understand that they are not the gruesome animals that the media would like you to think!

If you would like a custom commission of your own dogs feel free to send me a note. These will have a 2 week turn around unless otherwise stated as the rescue pups are my focus for the daily paintings. But I do always love a challenge :) 50% of all commissioned pieces will be donated.

Thank you for checking out my etsy shop, feel free to contact me with any other questions I may not have answered.
