Painting Winnie the Shelter Dog

Join me as I paint Winnie, a 6-year-old shelter dog from the NH Humane Society. In this video, you’ll see her portrait take shape while hearing about her personality — a shy girl hoping for a loving home.

Winnie’s quiet spirit and tender eyes inspired me to capture her in water-soluble graphite with a warm, hopeful touch.

This portrait is part of my Painting Shelter Pets series, where I use art to spotlight adoptable animals and share simple ways you can make a difference — from fostering and volunteering to sharing their stories online.

Even if you can’t adopt, spreading the word can help Winnie and other rescue pets find their forever families. 💗
