for love of pets

Me and Blacky,
Susie E Caron (c) 1-1-20

My love for animals began very early. This is a photo of me with my first puppy. I named him Blacky. I loved him dearly, as you can see. It was hard for me at 4 years old, when Blacky was hit by a car and killed while I had been away visiting my Grandparents. I learned of his death when I returned home and I never got to say 'Goodbye'. This photo is all I have of him. 

While I couldn't replace Blacky, I have enjoyed many pets, horses and farm animals, throughout my life and loved every one deeply. When we retired, we rode our horses for a few more years. However, we realized we needed to find them good homes, before we struggled to care for them.  We also realized that we needed to become a one pet family and are blessed by Josie, our now 3 year old bouncing Boxer. 

​Maybe that's why I love to paint pet and animal portraits and scenes with animals in them. 

My love for animals never waned. I wanted to surround myself with them and I discovered more & more people wanted portraits of their beloved pets, horses and other animals. 

I feel blessed every day to paint pets and animals for myself & for everyone who loves their pets. 

How do you feel about pet and animal art in your home?
I'd love to hear from you.
