Turn Your Photos Into Memorable Art

Ever want to create a beautiful piece out of your favorite pet photo? Here's a way to create fine art canvas portraits from photos. The process if called Giclée on canvas and it's done by a local artist based in Menlo Park. Posted are the original pet photos followed by the Glicee print. You will have to see it in person at the boutique to see how fabulous the photos are interpreted.

The term "giclee print" connotes an elevation in printmaking technology. Images are generated from high resolution digital scans and printed with archival quality inks onto canvas. The giclee printing process provides better color accuracy than other means of reproduction. The quality of the giclee print rivals traditional silver-halide and gelatin printing processes and is commonly found in museums, art galleries, and photographic galleries. Numerous examples of giclee prints can be found in New York City at the Metropolitan Museum, the Museum of Modern Art, and the Chelsea Galleries. Recent auctions of giclee prints have fetched $10,800 for Annie Leibovitz, $9,600 for Chuck Close, and $22,800 for Wolfgang Tillman.

The gallery-wrapped edges allow you to hang canvas print with or without a frame. These canvas prints make wonderful gifts or art for your home.

As a special introduction, we are offering these custom prints at 20% off for the month of September.

Absolutely the Best Harness for All Sizes

We've heard it all...from leather sunglasses to S&M for dogs. People see it and often chuckle, but once you try it on your pooch you may never try another harness again. Its unique, patented design reduces stress on your pet's neck around the sensitive tracheal area, is easy to use and is made with 100% leather and quality hardware.
Measure girth (full circle all the way around body, directly behind your pet's front legs), confirm weight, then determine size.
To fit, place BB on ground topside down and position front legs through holes. The buckle always goes to your pet's left paw.
Wrap BB around body and fasten it between your pet's shoulder blades. An ideal fit will allow enough room for a finger or two to slip underneath when you give a light tug up on the sliding o-ring. When buckled, the BB should comfortably fasten at one of the three middle holes. There are five holes in total. If your dog is still growing the tightest hole is acceptable, as long as the BB still fits snugly. If your dog is wearing the BB over top of a sweater, the end hole is acceptable.
Lastly, attach leash to sliding o-ring. Pet tags can also be attached here. You'll never have to struggle again with figuring out which way a harness goes on your pet. From a training perspective, dog harnesses are useful for teaching your pup not to pull as the pressure from a harness is more evenly distributed around your dog’s body. Some crafty dogs are occasionally able to slip their heads out of their collar, but since a harness fits around the whole body, your pooch is less likely to accidentally escape.

Such beauty in its simplicity!
