From Rocco’s Hart

I took a little break from painting to settle into my first year of college classes, but last week I completed this painting of Willie as a gift for my friend. It felt good to draw again!

Some recent paintings I completed during a busy summer!

I finished Frannie, who was in progress last time I posted.
I also completed Rusty, who sadly passed away recently. I hope this memorial painting will make his family smile.

A few of the paintings that are keeping me busy in March!
Finn Diesel, Stella, and Frannie is in progress!

I was very happy to paint Jagger and Maggie this week for a friend! It was an honor to capture the bond between them in a portrait. I hope the whole family loves it!

I’ve been working on a different project in between some animal paintings. A close friend of ours wanted a Star Wars painting based on a tattoo he has. This is my interpretation printed on metal! I hope he loves it!

A couple of weeks ago, I posted my painting of Pumpkin. This is her brother Snoop, also adopted from The Greater Derry Humane Society!

My latest painting is of Remy who is celebrating his 12th birthday. His Mom and Dad own Rockingham Brewing Company. They are huge supporters of The Greater Derry Humane Society, Inc. where I adopted my dogs from, and I was very happy to give them this gift.
Happy Birthday Remy!

Having a break from school was great, but I didn’t take a break from painting!

This is Pumpkin, who was adopted from The Greater Derry Humane Society a little over a year ago!

My friend tagged me in a post a few days ago where someone was looking to have a portrait painted. This is Jaxon, who recently passed away. I’m honored to have been asked to paint him. His mom is going to use my work as the inspiration for a tattoo she is getting of Jaxon. He was a beautiful boy, and I’m happy this painting made her smile!

I just finished a painting of Sashi. Sashi passed away recently, and a friend wanted to gift a painting in her memory. RIP Sashi ❤️🌈
I hope this painting brings comfort and a smile to Sashi’s mom.

Digital paintings can also be printed on canvas!
This is Baby, who was adopted from The Greater Derry Humane Society in 2020. Her family just adores her, and Mom wanted to have a painting done on canvas as a Christmas gift for Baby’s human sister. She’s so happy with how it came out that she donated $50 to GDHS to help more homeless animals!
Thank you for supporting animal rescue!
