| My beautiful Pearlie. |
|
|
Mary Ellen McFadden, the highly regarded portrait artist in Richmond, VA has generously agreed to donate an oil portrait of the winning bidder's dog this year which will be done from a photo supplied by the winner. The paintings above are one she did of Poppy, from an old Polaroid, and one of Pearlie from the Silk Road cover. The photos do not do them justice. An example of her work will be available for viewing at the National.
Retail Value $1000 (there will be a minimum bid on this item)
