ROWENA CHERRY

Rowena captured a series of memories in these portraits.

When the neighbors called saying their granddaughter brought her horses and invited Rowena over, she immediately accepted and asked if she could bring her camera. Remy and Shelby were ready for their photoshoot and gave quite the show in exchange for the attention.

The second painting is Rowena’s friend’s grandchildren enjoy many fun outings together. Capturing them being extra together, she painted it for her friend, who shares in her love for creating and is a constant source of encouragement.

The pup’s name is Lulu, and Rowena babysat her while the owners were gone. Lulu communicated effectively just how many walks and outings she wanted to take. After losing both of her Welsh Springer Spaniels to old age, the companionship was welcomed and thoroughly enjoyed.

The last piece didn’t involve specific memories per se. An exercise piece for looser painting, Rowena saw the Victorian-like lady with her well-coiffed hair and fancy dress hidden in the paint. Her goal was to show her www.WetNoseCreative.com

Lori loves her fur babies and, when she came across this dog, she fell in love with his expression. Before this, Lori was afraid of painting fur, but after taking this leap of faith, she now has the confidence to paint her own fur-babies.

David’s heart couldn’t say no when his grandson asked him to paint Maggie da’Moo. The Holzemer family rescued her when she was 10, and Maggie and David’s grandson formed an inseparable bond. Maggie crossed over the Rainbow Bridge a while ago, but her memory lives on in the hearts that loved her.
