mother's day and a girl named casper

This is a painting I did for my mom for mother's day! It's of Casper, a Great Dane my mom rescued in 1980, five years before I was born.
My mom and Casper

Happy mother's day, mommy! Thank you for always being there for me. I love you!
I hope that everyone else had a wonderful mother's day!
lots of love,

What a beautiful thing to paint for your mom.
My kids don't get it, I love presents with thoughts, they got me gift cards, they take after their dad;)
