The Daily Corgi is a place for all things corgi, from Pembroke to Cardigan, mixes and more. Our pup, Pocket entered the costume contest last year: she went as a chicken, which she already thought she was. I made the costume for her and she loved wearing it as much as we loved looking at her in it. She didn’t win the contest, but we’re not sore losers at all. I’m offering a 5×7 custom pet portrait for the lucky winner (and his/her human). Choose from a finished illustration style, or a more whimsical and sketchy style. The prize can also be used to apply towards a more expensive purchase (such as an 8×10 or 11×14). Below are illustrations 1. of my horse, Misty and dog, Amber: both deceased and 2. our little Pocket pup.

Choose from a tight, outlined style

I’m also proud to announce that I’ll be donating $5 to benefit Corgi Aid from every purchased referred from the Daily Corgi until the end of the year. So check out the blog, enter your furry friend and I hope you’re the winner! If not, be sure and get that promo code to use for your next purchase and help out some corgis in need. Get on over there and check it out! (Even if you don’t have a corgi to dress up, it’s worth checking it out)

Focusing on that business tends to distract me from this one, however. So i’ll be focusing on some new projects at the drafting table soon. I’m excited to announce pet portraits and MURALS to be added to my repertoire very soon. As always, i’ll provide original artwork at budget prices to liven up the lives of my clients and their children (or pets!).

In other exciting news: Snackit Adventures: Bedtime Snackit is just about finished! I have the proofs and they look great, so watch Amazon.com for the arrival of a super fun book about bedtime snacks and and the critters who thieve them. I’ll be posting interior illustrations here soon as well, so come on back and check it out!

Her mama wanted to give something special to Ella’s GG as well, so I made this 5×7 portrait of sorts of the two together for them to remember each other by.

Today’s giveaway is a beautiful, handmade doll.

Check it out! And head back to H!D!S! on Wednesday for my giveaway.

Commissioned 11x14 for M. Haske, 2010

I pair up your kiddos’ names with matching animals, favorite things, or just make a super cool poster featuring your very own kids like i did for Marigold’s Huck and Milo. I hear tell the image has inspired them to leap from their bunks off imaginary trapezes – this may or may not be a good thing/ compliment. Illustrations are all original pieces of art, entirely customized for you and your children. The gift certificate may also be used as a gift and will be valid for up to one year.

So, head on over to Hideous! Dreadful! Stinky! next week for your chance to win some great prizes.

Simply contact me with your project, mail me some scraps of fabric (or let me know where you purchased the fabric and i’ll buy a yard), and get filled with excitement to see your baby’s name up on the wall.
Each piece can be stretched on pine, ready to hang (no frame necessary). You can choose the size, but i think they work pretty great at about 2×3 feet.
Prices vary depending on labor, but you can expect your piece to be about $100 plus shipping (shipping void if purchasing locally).
