Cookie
(Beagle)
2009 | Acrylic on canvas | 28in x 30in
“I have snapshots of my dear departed Cookie, but they have nowhere near the spirit and personality of Aimée’s gorgeous portrait. She not only conveyed everything I loved most about Cookie, but imbued the painting with her own lovely energy. I’m stunned by how comforting and sweet it is to have this painting. It has brought his soul into my home even after his body left it. As art and as a personification of love this painting is one of my favorite possessions. If you have a pet, living or dead, have Aimée paint you a picture. You’ll be SO happy you did!” — Martha Beck
