Children's book illustrator, costume designer, and make-up artist Tessie Bundick will create an original portrait of your pet in pastels.  Tessie has been illustrating children's books since 1997. She especially loves creating pictures of animals. Her art has been displayed in many gallery show around Minnesota and she is presently illustrating a series of six children's books, the first one due out this fall. She has been painting animal portraits for several years which is a lot of fun because it is touching to see how attached people are to their pets and to be part of that circle of affection. The person who wins the bid on the portrait will need to send Tessie several photos of their pet. Tessie will use these pictures to capture the essence of their pet.  The portrait will be 11 x 14 inches on a white mat with a standard black frame.
