Recently finished portrait: Monty



I've had the unique opportunity to watch Monty (a blue merle Australian Shepherd) grow from a tiny pup into a beautiful dog, thanks to Jessica Valenti's weekly "Monday Monty Blogging" posts:





For those who may not know, Jessica is the founder of feministing.com, an online community for feminists and their allies. Each week, from Monday-Sat, the site offers a collection of the latest feminist/activist related news, as well as commentary from the Feministing team and their readers. They also recently launched a new community section that allows feminists around the world to connect with one another, speak out, and get involved. It's extremely informative and one of my daily reads (you should definitely check it out if you haven't already), so I was thrilled to be able to create this portrait for Jessica, particularly since Monty has become a bit of a mascot on Feministing.
