      Mr. Forest in a Forest of
      Orchids

      18" x 24" OIL PAINTING
      2005

      Dyan Epstein, Owner

      This painting is a commissioned portrait
      of Mr. Forest who resides in Weston, Florida. He is a teacup
      sized, sweet Yorkshire Terrier with a beautiful personality and
      his owner likes to dress him up. She held him up for me in sunlight
      and I took some pictures. We later decided to place him in a
      forest of orchids. He seems happy there.

      The original oil paintings measures 18"
      x 24" and is available on paper in any size. Or, if you
      have a special pet, you may want me to create a painting of them
      for yourself or as a gift to someone special. I work from photographs
      so your pets do not have to sit still.

      The Hunter

      18" x 24" OIL PAINTING
      2005

      Latte, my dog is a wonderful pet and has
      the heart of a hunter. She loves to hunt for lizards and waits
      and watches for birds and squirrels all day long. She is also
      as sweet as can be and speaks to you with her eyes, just waiting
      for you to notice when she wants something.

       

      Latte and Mango

      18" x 24" OIL PAINTING
      2005

      We lost Mango as a puppy and have since
      added a new Westie to our pack... Flash. In "Latte and Mango",
      although they are not related, a sweet connection was captured
      which I will always have memories of. I enjoyed painting their
      fur and all of the colors which are reflected in their white
      coats.



       

      Lena and Peanut

      18" x 24" OIL PAINTING
      2007

      These sweet dogs never lived a full life.
      The virus Parvo infected them and their owners wanted a happy
      memory of them together. The original picture was taken of them
      indoors. I thought they would have been happier outside on the
      field.
