A Dog Named Griffin

(Watercolor study of Griffin)

The dog is often referred to as a man's best friend and that certainly is the relationship my son Joe Patterson has with his dog Griffin.  Griffin is a beautiful, noble, and friendly white German shepherd who loves going on adventures with his master.  Together they explore mountains, waterfalls, lakes and streams.  Recently Joe told me that he is working on writing a children's book about Griffin's adventures and asked me to illustrate the book for him.  Well, I am delighted to join up with Joe and Griffin on this endeavor!  Joe hopes to turn it into a series of books about Griffin's experiences.
 You can learn more about Griffin by liking his fan page on Facebook at "Legend of Griffin".


"Heaven goes by favor.  If it went by merit, you would stay out and your dog would go in."
                      ---Mark Twain

"You think dogs will not be in heaven?  I tell you, they will be there long before any of us."
                     ---Robert Lewis Stevenson

Live bravely and beautifully!
