They're gorgeous paintings - I would be mad too if I told someone they could paint my girls and were selling them online without telling me that was the reason to paint them....Michelle - 'waistful' did one of Cheri and one day mailed it to me - I was so touched.

they are stunning paintings. I understand why someone else would want them. They don't know it's someone else's dog, probably. It's like going to the store and seeing a picture of a dog to buy. Of course that dog belongs to someone.

I'm glad you won London's. Maybe you should contact her to find out what's going on.

wow, those paintings are really good. look so real.
I gave up trying to paint a picture of someones yorkie and have it look even a little like it lol.....now thats talent in my book. I'm glad you won one of them.
I would feel honored if someone wanted to use my babies pics to paint like that

but she should have asked about london's too.

Beautiful Paintings, i would want them !

Did she tell you she was going to make money off of either of them? I would definitly bring up the fact that you didn't allow her to paint London.

Wow, those paintings are absolutely gorgeous! But then, so are your dogs

. I'd be flattered that other people wanted to buy a picture of my dog, but I'm sure that whoever bought it has no idea whose dog it is or even if it was a real, live dog, you know what I mean? I'd just be sad that I couldn't buy it myself. And if they didnt' tell you that they were going to be putting it up for sale, I think I'd be a little annoyed.
I think you should ask if they could do another set for you for a set price for the two of them (not the same as what they sell for on ebay of course). I def. think you should be able to purchase paintings of your own dogs that you supplied the photos for at a decent price.

The paintings are gorgeous, but I don't understand why she took it upon herself to post them for sale on ebay without asking for your permission.

Did you get your painting yet? I hope it's as beautiful in person as pictured.
