Hey Guys,
Each year it seems like we pick a charity animal and the wife sculpts and paints a certain amount of pieces and we donate all the funds to the charity. Well this year we picked MAPR a national pug rescue that we've helped on several occasions.
One of our rescues was adopted and made the calendar in July. She was in very bad condition when we received her through the rescue, we nursed her back to health and she has a happy home with other pugs. Even though she is almost blind, that dog would sit there and howl a very low song. It was pretty cool to help that little dog and see her got to a good home and she got 3rd in July.:

This is a great organization and we have a special interest since we own pugs.
Kristina painted 25 Fawn and 25 Black and each sold for $25 and we think they are just about sold out and in only a few days.

We are happy that we were able to help MAPR and all the little less fortunate pugs.
Here is the congo line of painted pieces sculpted and painted by Kristina and cast by myself.
My Pug Pei Chi Li poses with all the little pugs. The wife even painted me a portrait piece of Pei Chi Li for my very own.
These goofy little bastards bring a lot of joy to our lives, just thought I would share.
Thanks for looking,
Paul
