New Jersey painter Judy Henn does "whatever made me happy," and it's great when she recently combined her love for painting interiors with her love of pets. "I thought it would be fun and funny to include them in my work." She's now completed over 60 dog portraits, and she's being commissioned to paint portraits for other people's pets. For more information, contact Judy at Robin's Egg Gallery.
