  • Obama Wins: Iowans Choose To Roll The Dice!

    Barack Obama is on to New Hampshire with a win!

    One more political post (for now) and then I’ll go back to dog art. Arianna Huffington beautifully sums up last night’s win for Obama and why all Americans should be proud of it.

    I love this quote:

    “Tonight voters decided that they didn’t want to look back. They wanted to look into the future — as if a country exhausted by the last seven years wanted to recapture its youth.”

    Arty husband and wife team Rebecca Blais and Kimpton recently opened their elegant animal-centric Sovereign Hound Gallery in the heart of Charleston, S.C. Inspired by their first Great Dane, Athena, the original “Sovereign Hound,” and their two current Great Danes, Roscoe and Leopold, the couple’s new venture will feature a strong emphasis on dog art.
