Double your traffic. This is a beautiful signed and dated original painting in acrylics by L.A. Shepard. It is on an 8x10 x 3/4 inch stretched canvas with painted sides. Sides are painted-No need for framing. But would look super in a big, wide frame! These paintings make a striking gallery grouping. The Norwegian Elkhound is a hardy dog, originally bred to hunt large game in the rugged terrain of Norway. The Elkhound is a bold, playful fellow. Quite independent, and extremely intelligent, he can be, at times, a bit boisterous. The Elkhound is very loyal and will do best with an active companion who loves the outdoors.

ABOUT THE ARTIST: I have spent most of my life working along side of my husband in our small business in a little Ontario cottage town north of Toronto, raising our 3 kids and enjoying a simple, happy life. In the summer of 2006 our world was turned upside down when my husband went to the Emergency room with a blinding headache and was diagnosed with a deadly brain tumour . I had to find a new way to make a living so that I could stay at home and take care of him and support our family. I had been drawing and painting animals for my own enjoyment for years, so I thought I’d try to sell some of my dog paintings here on Ebay. My paintings immediately started selling and I began to gain a following which afforded me the opportunity to spend every wonderful moment with my husband as he bravely fought this devastating disease. We were so blessed as we had another four and a half years together. But on September 26, 2010, my beautiful husband, Gary, lost his battle. During his illness, I was very driven to paint, so that I could put food on the table and keep us in our home. My husband was always my inspiration as well as my most positive encourager. I painted to pay the bills, but it became my passion very quickly. This is the legacy he left me. He was very proud of me , and though my art career was forged from tragedy, it is certainly the silver lining that he left me with. I love to paint dogs! Every painting I paint, I try my best to capture the spirit of these wonderful companions. No matter what challenge you have to face in life, it’s always easier if your dog is by your side! 　A face book page has been created by my children and dedicated to my husband’s idea that people should celebrate their birthday by giving something to someone in need. Every year we get on earth is a gift and it really feels great to give! /group.php?gid=129513710432628&ref=mf Thanks so much for the support of all my wonderful customers over the years. I will keep painting as it is my passion and my comfort, especially when my dog is laying at my feet.
