Who is Josephine?

You may have noticed that I often sign my newsletters, "J'ai and Josephine."

Who is Josephine?

She's my gloriously beautiful King Shepherd, who came into my life a few years ago after I had lost my beloved Mickey. Josie spends most of her day, except for walks and playdates, with me at my Beverly Hills studio. She's grown up around my clients and enjoys the comings and goings of my visitors. You know you've become one of her favorites when she dozes in the studio while I attend to your facial or makeup!

Josephine's portrait (above) was painted by Sharon Brooks, a talented artist who produces pet portraits and other original art. In addition to her larger works, Sharon also produces lovely note cards, which are available for purchase through my studio. If you are interested in commissioning a portrait of your beloved pet, you can contact Sharon via email at sharon [at] sharonbrooksart [dot] com.
