Lesli DeVito : IN MEMORY OF SWEET MOSES

I am often painting more than one painting at a time...and I have all of these checks and double checks to make sure that I don't mistakenly put the wrong name on a painting...or GOD FORBID...ship a painting to the wrong recipient. I have never done either...that is until this week...when I wrote "MILO" instead of "MOSES"....I think because all the while I was painting this adorable "pug nosed pup!" .... I kept hearing the theme song from
"MILO AND OTIS"
.... even though it is OTIS that is the pug!

....My most recent Custom Pet Portrait was of

"MOSES"

(I am so sorry..I got your name wrong Moses when I mistakenly wrote Milo! )

Moses was a MUCH beloved dog who sadly passed away in January....

"He was our furry child....All Moses ever wanted was to be a companion. He was content to sit with us all the time, especially in his later years. In his early years he loved to play and go for walks. He LOVED to eat and he would bark constantly when I cooked scrambled eggs because he knew he would get a little portion in his own bowl. He was a very special family member to us."
