Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do you get them to sit still?
Gail doesn’t! She works from photos that you provide.
How do I pick just one?
That sometimes is the hard part, especially if your dog is photogenic. Gail’s Bella always avoids the camera, while Bogart is a ham. If you have several that you are having a problem deciding on which to chose, just send them all when you order. Gail will help you winnow down to the best 2-3. She will be looking for the best composition along with the reference you provide on the personality of your pet. Both are a part of a good painting.
What if I only have one picture?
If you only have one, Gail will work with that image. She have worked from one frame of a video tape since that was the image the client loved of their best friend.

What if I want to give this as a gift but don't know what is the best picture?

And the recipient has a pleasure of going through their photos to pick the one they would like. Gail works with many pet non-profit charities which are gift certificate so she knows that people appreciate getting to have input.
