	A Christmas Eve Delivery Christmas Eve Delivery is the third in William S. Phillips’ “Inns of Christmas Series,” having previously delighted his scores of loyal collectors with Christmas Eve at the Winchester Inn and Winter Visitors at the Kringle Hill Inn (right, both Sold Out at Publisher). This year, Phillips captures the spirit of the season with a heartwarming Christmas Eve tale. “An unusual Christmas Eve snowstorm has descended upon North Carolina bringing holiday travel to a near standstill,” Phillips explains.“Highways and airports are closed, forcing travelers to find shelter as the roads are cleared. For the fortunate family who has checked into the Fuquay Mineral Spring Inn and Garden, it will prove to be a most wonderful Christmas experience.The Inn’s gracious owners, John and Patty Byrne, knowing their guests disappointment at not spending Christmas Eve with loved ones, have sent for a Christmas tree with all the trimmings to be delivered to their room.A young boy with his faithful friend has volunteered to provide the delivery service in his wagon. After an elegant Christmas Eve dinner and some eggnog and spiced cider with cookies by the fire, our stranded travelers will return to a room decorated with the cheerful glow of a very special Christmas Eve tree.” (See options...)


	A Curious Encounter & A New Generation Here are two moments in the life of a Samoyed puppy. One is a family portrait with the pup close to his mom and pop but looking forward to exploring. The second pictures the ermine he meets during his first trip outside. Both images gave me the chance to work with subtle color and shadow in elegant white on white images. (See options...)

	A Feeling Of Warmth As artist John Weiss remarked, “There’s nothing like sitting by the fire with your loyal dog curled up at your feet for a real sense that all is right with the world.” . . . A heartbeat at my feet,” is how novelist Edith Wharton described her dog. A Feeling of Warmth is the perfect portrayal of both sentiments but we can also identify with this Golden, warming his back now and, in a little while, rising and turning to spread his belly along the heat of the fire. “Did you ever notice that Goldens can lie in the snow with their faces buried, yet they never seem to get cold?” asks the artist. “Then they come into the house and lie so close to the flames you’d think they could catch fire. Extreme temperatures don’t seem to affect them much.” To paraphrase Charles M. Schulz, happiness is this warm puppy and this Anniversary Edition in your home will warm your long winter nights.

	Autumn Friends John Weiss’ favorite theme of companionship is beautifully realized in Autumn Friends, his latest release. Brilliantly combining colors and textures, Weiss creates an image that conveys emotion and humanity. The pair of friends in this image may be familiar to collectors who have seen his series of Grady images, including Old Friends, Forever Friends and New Friends —all Sold Out at Publisher. In Autumn Friends, Weiss captures a man and his dog on a crisp autumn morning as they set out for another of life’s adventures together as faithful friends. (See options...)

	Before The Tempest Strength, comfort and encouragement are always within reach is the message behind John Weiss’ Facing the Storms series. We may not always be aware of the form in which they present themselves, but the means by which we confront life’s challenges are all around us. John, who leads grief support groups when he is not painting, believes that dogs are not the only beings capable of giving so much for seemingly so little in return. He often chooses to represent family, friends and faith in the simple form of man’s best friend. With this painting he is saying that we don’t have to be in the midst of great turmoil to realize that we are not alone. The key lay in recognizing the wag of a tail for what it is.

	Best Loved Breeds: Golden Retriever John introduces his new series with the most popular hunting and family member in America—the retriever. The breed’s gentleness with kids, eagerness to please and even temperament are just a few traits shared by golden and yellow retrievers that make them favorites. Why do some folks prefer one versus the other? Perhaps it comes down to a lot of hair—and not just on the dog. You either mind having to clean it up or you don’t! Published from the artist’s original oil painting. (See options...)


	Best Loved Breeds: White Standard Poodle Third in the Best-Loved Breed Series. Poodles are among the top 10 most popular breeds in America and are the national dog of France. The Standard Poodle is the oldest and largest of the three varieties (including Miniature and Toy). The breed is admired for its active and intelligent nature and its elegant appearance. Perhaps you´ll be as surprised as we were to learn that poodle´s hairstyles originate from their work as retrievers. Accompanied by a pencil sketch of the adult and a title card suitable for framing with the print or separately. (See options...)


	Best Loved Breeds: Yellow Labrador Retriever John Weiss introduces his new series Best-Loved Breeds with the most popular hunting and family member in America–the Yellow Labrador Retriever. The series is comprised of a full color portrait of the dog as a pup, accompanied by a printed sketch of the dog as an adult and title card. Both can be hung together or separately. (See options...)
