Take Me Home

"Take Me Home"
5 x 5 inches, Oil on Board,
This is a photo of "Max" I found on the Metroport Humane Society's petfinder dog pages. He just looked so sorrowful. I named this painting "Take Me Home". The are too many dogs and cats that are put down every year. A simple solution is to Spay and Neuter your animal. The Metroport Humane Society offers low cost Spay and Neuter Coupons that can be used at participating vets. And if you're in the market for a new pet - please check your local humane society first. You'll be saving a life and getting a wonderful companion - I have two "found" dogs.
The auction is still going on for those interested in bidding for the painting of the black and white cat posted below.

Ally


Click here to bid.

Cheryl Cardon of Metroport Humane Society sent along photos of several cats to use as models and this is one of them, "Ally" a silvery, gray cat with beautiful green eyes. She looks like she's planning a revolt...Mice beware!

It is beautiful here in the DFW area - the sun is out but a little nippy, for us (if you're reading this blog and you live in the North - it's balmy) but the weather forecasters said that next week we're to have 80+ degrees! YAY! Though I complain about the heat in Texas in August, I love warmer weather and longer days.

Tomorrow morning starts the auction for "Willie". Please be sure to write "Willie" in the subject line when you send me an email at info@judymackey.com. Thank you.

Two-a-Day

Back when I used to pay attention to the Dallas Cowboys, they'd often mention the word "two-a-day" for having football practice twice a day. I painted Tyson for my friend but liked the way it turned out so much that I decided to do another. This one isn't wearing a collar and I took away the heart which was actually a vet tag. As much as the two look alike there are differences in the two paintings. I'll have to name this painting, so if anyone has a good title, please leave me a comment.
Just a reminder. I'll be auctioning off the black and white cat painting starting Saturday 8:00 am to benefit the Metroport Humane Society. Someone asked if "Willie" was adopted by Cheryl as a forever home pet or as a foster pet - Willie is a forever pet. But there are plenty of pets on their website all needing good homes.

Willie and Metroport Humane Society

The photo of this painting came out a little dark; I should really study the photoshop tips that R. Garriott writes about on his blog, Daily Paintings plus Photoshop Tips. At any rate, I emailed this painting to Cheryl who is a member of the Metroport Humane Society near my house. She said this cat looks a lot like her new adoptee, Willie, so that is what I'm calling this painting. Willie was at an animal shelter for 34 days, 31 days too long, when Cheryl happened to visit the shelter.

Next week-end I'm going to auction this little painting on this blog and donate the proceeds to the Metroport Humane Society. The auction will begin on Saturday, Feb 21 at 8am and end on Monday Feb 23 at 8pm. Anyone interested in this painting can send me an email with the amount they are willing to buy this painting during that time and the person with the highest bid will win the painting.

If you are interested in participating - please send me at email at info@judymackey.com with the "Willie" in the Subject Line during the auction period. I will only open emails received during the auction period and with the proper subject line. Please only write a dollar amount you wish to buy the painting for.
If I receive more than one offer of the same dollar amount, the email I receive first will be the one who wins the auction.

This is a 5 x 5 inch, original oil painting on board and will be framed.

Thank you all and thank you, Metroport Humane Society.
