With as many pups (and various other pets) that I’ve been painting lately, there sure has been a lack of shout outs in our corner. And while we (read: I ) could literally squeeze the bejeesus out of each pet we’ve “met” over the last few months, I chose to share Max. But only because […]

Renegade, Holla
Holy moly, folks. Renegade was an absolute blast and we’re still over the moon that they included little ol’ us. While we’d love to divulge every teeny last detail, we know pictures say it best. As promised, you’ll notice our home all over that booth, from my grandma’s chair, a re-purposed cabinet (left over from […]
Oh, Sweet Friday (and Holy Renegade, Folks)
The laundry’s done, the bags have been unpacked, and the house has been sufficiently vacuumed and dusted. And since the ol’ honey-do list has been properly tackled, we’re able to spend the whole weekend (and the next weekend and the one after that) preparing for the upcoming Renegade Craft Fair. Whoot! Some of you may […]
Painted: Cody
You may have seen Cody pop up in our Pet Shop, but his face was too sweet not to share on our Painted platform, too. While this Lab and Chow mix may get more noticed for his love of food (his sandwich sleuthing skills come to mind), the “sniffer” in him is what got me. […]
Painted: Bella and Dixie
First of all, a whopping thank you to those who’ve placed orders with The Pet Shop and kicked it off right! It’s no joke when I say that I’ve been having so much fun learning all those quirky things your pet does. The sweet photos you’ve passed along and your detailed descriptions just go to […]
Painted: Neko and Ti
I had so much fun working on the most recent batch of pet paintings, I just had to share. Meet Neko and Ti. As the proud parents of two female cats, we know what it’s like to bow down in your own home. Meaning, the “girls” are typically the queens of this throne, yet we […]
A Little Art Swap
Our neighbors and friends, Chris and Angela, have been big supporters of this Yellow Brick Home for a long while (including acting as a sort of contributor – more on that below). Living just 9 feet above our heads, the hubs and I often find ourselves marveling at the space they call home, especially since […]
Meet Opie
When we first found out that our friend Kelly‘s baby shower was being hosted on a Friday night (and in Cincinnati), we were super bummed. (You may remember her from touring her colorful, happy home a few months ago. Man, I love a girl who loves color). Not only had we wanted to be there […]
More Puppies
Meet Boozha, Saskia, Lucy, Dante, and Mia. In that order. These pups were put to panel after our friend Melissa saw Rider hanging on Penina’s wall. Excited to take on the challenge of capturing more puppy personalities, I gladly accepted the job, and in the end, she eagerly gifted them on to her mother as […]
Painting Puppies
Last year for Scott’s birthday, I painted him a 5×5 inch portrait of a Boston Terrier on a slab of wood panel. At the time, we were smitten with those little bundles of love and all their pink-tongue, wet-nosed glory. Since we couldn’t quite imagine hunkering down and adopting one just yet, I thought a […]
