Jaclyn Marie Prints

Dogs are the best! And dogs in camping chairs are even more the best. This commission introduced me to Spinone Italianos. This breed was new to me and is fairly new to the AKC (2000). The print is in the style of my Dog Days of Summer series, and is in memory of the orange roan on the left. I got to meet the brown roan and the beard and droopy eyes are even more terrific in person.

Idaho had a contest to redesign their wildlife license plates, and they announced the winners last week. Spoiler alert, it wasn’t me. I submitted entries for the Elk plate with two different background colors, the Trout plate, and the Bluebird plate. They weren’t picked, so that’s a bummer. I think ultimately it came down to style preference, or at least that’s what I’m telling myself to make myself feel better.
