Japan

Original dog painting goes home to Japan

Two daughters ordered a painting from me as a gift for their mother, a doctor who lives in Japan with her beloved pups. The daughters live in the US and had to carry the painting on the airplane, and had a little bit of difficulty with it, but the painting arrived safely and they sent me photos, and this note:

We had trouble figuring out how to transport the painting after finding out that they won't let me carry it on with me on the plane.  So we bought a suitcase big enough to fit the painting and we fretted about the possible damage... but I bubbled wrapped it, wrapped in blanket and it worked out perfect!
She was completely baffled that we brought something so big and special! haha. She thought that painting captured the personalities spot on!  It fits perfectly in her cozy small living room where she can enjoy it often.
This whole experience of creating a painting for our mother, working with you to make it reality was a true gift! Ema and I really enjoyed it!  
I hope our path will cross again soon!  
Thank you Nancy, will always remember your kindness!
Love, Meri & Ema
