    140 minute pet portraits by Aimée Hoover

    In 2009 artist Aimée Hoover was inspired by Twitter’s 140 character limit to attempt painting custom dog portraits in 140 minutes.   She also used the new social network platform to launch a contest and give away a portrait to one lucky winner.  Since then, she has completed nine 140 minute pieces and the results (above) are simply wonderful.  Today, she launches her 10th giveaway via her facebook page.   Go to Aimée’s blog for the contest rules, includeing tips to increase your chances to win, and submit a photo of your pet. Deadline to enter is Monday, March 14, 2011 at midnight PST.

    Good luck!

    Although, L.A. photographer Sabrina Helas is still mourning the loss of her dog Kramer, who succumbed to cancer last month, she has found great comfort in the many photographs she took of her sweet boy over the years.  Inspired by this, and by Kramer's generous spirit, Sabrina is offering five free photo sessions to anywone with an ailing pet who might not have the resources to afford a photo session due to the economy.  What an amazing tribute to Kramer.  Thank you, Sabrina!

    Visit Sabrina's blog for details.

    I swear, I am not featuring Christmas cards to torture you.  People really ARE out there looking.  Here is a cool link that features free vintage dog art Christmas card images (like the one above) available for downloading.

    Also, all dog artists, if you would like me to include your dog art Christmas cards on Dog Art Today, send me your links.  Clearly, it’s not too soon to start thinking about the holidays.  Yikes!

    P.S. I am looking for dog art 2009 calendars too.
