The light is getting low these days. A storm is coming in. I'm off to get firewood and homemade goat cheese.
Have a great weekend.
P.S. There is a lovely essay by Robert Lipsyte in The New York Times about how a dog changed his life. It's called Four Legs and an Eye for Landscaping.

Leigh Jackson of Noisy Dog Studio started her career as a pet portrait artist in 1998 when she fell in love with a Boston Terrier named Hugo. Since then, she has followed her instincts as a self-taught painter to develop her own "nose first" style. Her charming use of color and composition and her ability to work from photographs make her work perfect for gift giving.
Leigh is graciously offering free shipping for a commissioned work or for any print or painting in her shop. Simply enter DOGARTTODAY in the "discount code" box when you checkout. Also, Leigh has recently added goats, horses, cows, and birds (I think her storks would be great images to use for a baby shower) to her repertoire. Visit her shop at Noisy Dog Studio to find the perfect gift for the dog lover, farmer, or aviphile on your holiday shopping list.
