Painting Details:  I met these unique breeds through our agility competitions and training.  The three dogs in “Siblings” always seemed to me a quite unique combination of breeds to have in one family and to compete with in agility.  They also have a brother, Hudson, who is a Golden Retriever.  “Ivan” is a Hungarian Mudi owned by a friend.  They struck me as a very interesting breed as they seem to be somewhat similar to Shelties in the head detail and size and their job of herding sheep.  

Artist’s thoughts: I own a Shetland Sheepdog who my daughter and I show in agility, rally, and obedience.  She currently has her AKC MACH, CDX, RE, THD as well as many other AKC, CDSP, and CynoSport Rally titles and is a Therapy Dog with Therapy Dogs International.  I have drawn dogs since a young age when I also had Shelties that I trained in AKC  obedience.
