Well-Dressed Dogs







My friend Christine Mercer Kraft paints dog portraits on old cabinet cards. Here are a few of her recent paintings.

Cabinet cards are a type of portrait photograph popular from about 1870 to 1920. They are about 4 or 5 inches wide and often feature elegant embossed cardboard frames. Chris is great at combining the dog's personality and the human outfit.

I have got to trade her a quilt for a portrait of Dorothy Barker, my approximate dachshund. If you want to try to trade her a quilt first (or better yet---cash) contact her at cmercerkraft@sunflower.com
