I dont know if anybody knows @RaRett (Rick Rettinger) won quite a few things from the EBN raffle in December and donated a lot back. One of the prizes he won was a free personalized bulldog painting which he told @bullmama he wanted to give to me. I sent the artist a pic of Chum and Hershey and she sent me an email this morning with the attached pic asking if i like it so far and if I had any recommendations or changes to suggest. I was stunned! It looks absolutely awesome to me..just perfect! I Cant wait to get the completed painting soon but just wanted you guys here on EBN to see it! Couldnt be happier! My wife asked why is Chumley's head so much bigger than Hersheys? I said are you serious? Chumley's head is huge! Thanks Rick! Thanks Lisa!

Wow it's incredible!!!! I think Hershey is supposed to be smaller to give the impression that he's behind Chumley as opposed to being right next to him. If anyone is interested in getting a painting done let us know I'm sure she would appreciate the business!

I'll ask her if she minds me giving out her email address if anybody here wants one. Maybe I'm biased but I think it's awesome.

Wow!!! The detail is amazing, it looks photo perfect. This is probably the best I've seen other then that Drago guy. She nailed Hershey's look on his face, his facial expression is unbelievably realistic!!

I'm going to have to check her out for sure.
