Welcome to GigglePug.com!

I hope you enjoy viewing my dog portraits as much as I love painting them.
They're all made with a little whimsy and a lot of love.
My goal for each painting is to reflect the personality of the dog and to
visually express the happiness pets bring to our lives.

I have a BFA from the School Of Visual Arts in NYC
and work professionally as an Art Director.
Fine art and caring for animals are two
of my deepest passions.

My husband and I have two pugs and volunteer as foster parents for
Adopt-A-Buddy Pug And Small Dog Rescue in Hohokus, NJ.
Our house is balanced and calm, most of the time, and we take extra care
to make our fosters feel secure, loved, and find peace
with us until they are placed in forever homes.

My pastimes include "throwing" clay
on the potter's wheel, playing acoustic guitar,
pickin' bluegrass tunes on my banjo, being in the
company of kind people, and of course,
their pets.

"You can judge a man's true character
by the way he treats his fellow animals." ~Paul McCartney
