I would want one of my 4 kids where they were all babies since they are getting so big. My twins started kindergarten this yr. I miss their baby faces, but enjoy that they are independent. I love this giveaway.
My son’s dog that he lost in an accident about 5 years ago. It broke his heart.
My precious welsh corgi, Mary!
Oh I love this! Our dog, Miley, would be the subject!
My two wonderful sons. They are my heart!
I would have it of my dog Jasmine!
My beautiful golden Ruby & her best bud, Sam the cat!
My german short haired pointer, Ollie! He is so handsome and I would love to have a portrait of him! :)
One of my wedding pictures… there is one of my husband dipping me down and kissing me in front of a water fountain…
That portrait is darling! I would go with my two sweethearts (7 and 3).
Our sweet pup Cromwell. He would be so adorable…..and it would help out our poor white walls!
I would have Rachel paint Sophie, our standard poodle, for my little boy. They are best friends and he would treasure it forever.
My two corgi’s would be the subject. One has passed away but we have numerous pictures of them together. We miss her everyday!
My two beautiful children! I can’t look at them enough, so I’ve got pictures everywhere!
There is no question – as soon as I saw your guys, I KNEW I wanted a portrait of my Mr. Fred. He is a rat terrier extraordinaire, and the jewel of my heart.
Aw, I have missed Miley and Howie too! Glad to see their cute little faces!
If I were to win this contest, I would request it to be my kiddos…if I could get them to sit together for a couple of minutes!
My amazing puppy Harvey who fills all our lives with joy
I would have my two Scottish terrier, Mac and Maggie! Mac is black and Maggie is white – I think it would make an adorable portrait!!
Who would the subject of your painting be? Immediately, I knew I would who the subject would be…. my absolutely beautiful, spunky, spoiled Siberian Husky. Her name is Lady Isabelle. She is grey and white with such beautiful light blue eyes! I think a watercolor image of her would be absolutely stunning!!! Why? Because she is absolutely perfect…. And she tilts her head back and forth just perfectly when I tell her this in my best squeaky voice (you know, that voice you only use when you talk to your dog)…. I should have named her Mary though because she is just like Mary Poppins – “Practically Perfect in Every Way!”
My rescue dog Benny! He’s the joy of my life. :-)
I think it would have to be of my Nanny… she died when I was 16, and I have missed her so much.
I LOVE the painting style!
My angel puppy. She passed away 4 years ago Wednesday and she’s been on my mind a lot lately. She was my husband’s first dog too and we miss her so much. There is a picture of her holding her hedgehog in her mouth poking me to play and I would love nothing more than to have that in a painting.
My boys who are pretty much grown up…last chance for a portrait of them together before the older one gets married next month!
my jasper and bella!
My subject would be my two sweet Daschunds, Sadie and Sasha. We lost Sasha in May to Cushings disease and I think having a portrait of the two of them would be a wonderful addition to our home.
My new puppy, Bentley! :)

Most definitely my cat, Henry :)
I would get a painting of my husband and I on our wedding day! We don’t have any art in our house so this would be great!
My beautiful white cat name Katy!
My two sons of course! Her work is beautiful!
My Rachael Rossman portrait would be of my Best Pet Friend, Casey Roberta…a 12 year old Jack Russell Terrier. Good Luck, everyone!
Would LOVE a watercolor of our daughter! It would be the perfect addition to her “big girl bedroom” which we are planning for this winter!
It would have to be of my son. He’s serving in the United States Air Force and I love him dearly!!!!
My portrait would have to be our English Springer Spaniel, Sally, who we had to put down last year at age 13. Thanks for the amazing giveaway.
We’ve been talking about getting a painting done of our dog Cody but we haven’t done it yet. I I win, the painting would be of Cody.
I would love one of our sweet pup Max!
I would have a photo of my brother’s dog, Riley, done for his birthday. I know he would adore and cherish it forever.
The subject of my painting would be my absolutely adorable 6 week old twin boys!
I would definitely do a portrait of either all three boys OR my little Lola! (She’s a Boston, too!)
How beautiful! I’d so love to have one of my three precious boys.
How COOL! My sweet baby girl, DEFINITELY! :)
We have a boston terrier as well so I’m sure Dylan would need to be the subject…they are just too cute not to be!
I would definitely have my bostons done! I have 5 and would love to have all 5 in the same artwork!.
My two year old… Would love a watercolor portrait of her! Thanks for the opportunity!
I’d get one of my cats. I’d have to give her individual pics and have her make it look like they were actually all sitting next to each other. Usually the kitten is getting into trouble bothering the other two!
My rescued Boxer named “Hank”. He gives me such joy with his daily mischief. I am an empty nester and he has filled my house and heart with enormous pleasure.
Thanks for the wonderful giveaway,
Jen
My Baby girl who is almost 18 months old :)
My beloved dog, Bishop! He will be 13 years old this year…. He has seen me through the best and worst of times. I would LOVE to immortalize his sweet face in one of Rachael’s portraits….
The portriat would be of my Boston Terrier Piglet! The princess of the household.
My subject would be my adorable baby boy!!
My Vizsla Remy! Cutest Vizsla on the planet!!!!☺
My husband dog walks our neighbors dog and has become quite attached to him. I think he spends more time with their dog than he does with me! :)
I’d love to get a painting of his buddy so he’ll always remember him when we have to move away next year.
gotta go with our two yellow labs – it would be so wonderful to have a watercolor of them:)
My sweet, little dog, Dori would be the subject of my portrait. I just love this dog! She makes me smile.
I’d have to think about that! I’d like to do all 3 of my pets: 2 cats and a dog. But they would never, ever, ever consent to sit still for a picture together. The dog would try to chase/eat the cats, and they would run away and hide under the bed. So I would have to choose between them… I think I’d pick the cats. They’re less visible most of the time, due to the hiding under the bed, so it’d be nice to have a lovely painting of them around, at least!
what a fun giveaway! i would have my two dogs, buddy and peanut, as the subject of the portrait!
I think a picture of our two cats, Buddy and Gato would be so special.
I love your picture of your two dogs.
My Grand-dog, Russo, a Renaissance Bulldog. My daughter has been wanting to get a photograph of him printed on a canvas to hang in the living room of her new home. This would be SO much better!! Thanks for the chance to win Amanda!
Since we don’t have kids (yet!) I think that the subject would be my sweet 73 lb. puppy Deen (short for Paula Deen). She is beautiful and for now the only baby we have, so why not put up her portrait? :)
I would choose our first baby…our 16yr old Tuxedo cat Pippin. He is in the end years of his life and such a fixture in our family, I can’t think of a better way to remember him when he is gone.
Great give away opportunity! Thanks!! Mine would be of my dogs Dexter and Gracie…they are the loves of my life and would love to capture them forever on canvas! Thanks again! Michelle!
My Cavalier King Charles Spaniel puppy, Charlie!
I would love to have my pug, Lulu be the subject of one of these paintings!
I would have the watercolor done of my Miniature Schnauzer – Sebastian!! Rachel did a beautiful job with your boys!!
I would love to have a painting of my sweet daughter – Madeline – it would be an AMAZING gift for her sweet grandparents – Gigi & Pop!
My precious granddaughters …Tatum and Emri!!
How awesome! Mine would be of my 5 year old puppy Roxy!
I would love a portrait of my husband.
This would be a great Christmas gift for my hubby of our dog, Marley!
Our labradoodle Wrigley
Fun giveaway. We’d love to have a portrait of our crazy lab, Summit. Hope we get lucky!
Thanks!
Love the doggie portrait! I would want a portrait of our dog Luna and cat Birdie. They tolerate each other and the cat will occasionally attack the dog and then play war has erupted!
How beautiful! I’d choose a picture of my kids of course!
The subject of my painting would be my boxer, Bentley, or my son!
So cute! Probably my dachshund would be the subject.
My dog and cat, both of which I miss very greatly.
I love these! So cute! I would do one of my border collie/aussie mix, Caleigh…who is also the namesake of my blog!
My dog! I just adopted him last winter and would love a painting of him.
What a beautiful giveaway! I would want a painting of my Sadie, a little Boston Terrier. She is soo cute with her one blue eye and one brown eye!
The subject of my painting would be my beautiful grand-daughter, Evangeline. At 6 months old, I’m pretty sure she is the cutest baby to ever be born! Of course, I am not too objective about this fact, but it would thrill my heart to have a beautiful water color portrait of her!
My cute little niece would be my subject of choice!
Most definitely our Boston Terrier Clive and our cats if we can get them to hold still for 4 seconds, otherwise they’ll be depicted as sketchy blurs running around him.
I would love one that would capture our family of four (five with our pooch) right now. We’re just finishing our family room remodel and I need something great for the walls!
I Love, Love, Love this giveaway!!
The subject would definetly be my two Pitties Nala and Gracie!! I’ve been looking for the right person to do their portrait and I think Rachael Rossman would be the perfect person for the job!!
This is amazing! My husband and I just adopted a puppy and were discussing getting a portrait of the two dogs together! So cute!
My dogs, Dallas and Peppers. Thank you!
