Birgit & Furry Family ( All Our Kid's Have Paws! )

This is the picture that was created by myself for my Wife's Birthday. Showing the pets that we lovingly refer to as "kids". Bentley our English Pointer dog, Frodo the Tabby Short-Haired cat ( in my Wife Birgit's arms) Zelda who is half Tortie and half squirrel judging by her tail! With Muppet the Ginger Short-Haired cat swiping Zelda which incidentally is his favourite past time, although she does give as good as she gets!

I wanted a more cartoon-like feel and so I have left a blank background as I think it would have maybe
detracted from the main images.

 Created in the normal way by drawing out in pencil and then scanning onto the computer, and painting in Photoshop using my tablet. I did have photo references but I wasn't looking for an exact likeness of the pets in particular just a loose representation.

I printed it onto photographic paper and framed it and gave it as a Birthday present which we will hang  later.
