pet portrait gift and eco wrapping

i painted my friends beloved cat santucci for a bridal shower gift. she is a photographer (melissahassey.com) and so i got the photo of their cat off of her website.

i will soon be listing pet portraits in my etsy shop. i am trying to figure out all the the details at the moment (shipping, wait time, cost, etc...) if you're interested and too impatient for a listing, you can drop me an e-mail at brandiadoff(at)gmail(dot)com.

i couldn't figure out how to wrap it so that it would be obviously fragile (it was a still little wet, oops, i didn't start it soon enough). the tissue paper wasn't big enough so i wrapped it in a table runner from my store and some ribbon and voila... a perfect gift wrap, which in itself is also a gift.

looks great. and I love the tulips next to the painting too! Nice touch. how much are you charging for the pet paintings?
