Count me as a fan of your skills as an animal portrait painter. I've always worked in watercolor, primarily landscapes, and recently ventured into your world of dog portraiture. Keep up the fine work! Best regards, Lee Dear Madeline,

The Life I Love By: Celeste Menard 12/19/07 I am from snoring dogs, Sunny, Guinness, and Caleb Who sleep by the fire all day. I am from running through the woods, With Caleb at my side. I am from a non-fighting family, That loves each other dearly. I am from family dinners at home Where the conversation is full of laughter. Ha! Ha! Ha! I am from the vast lakes of Cape Cod That swallow me whole when I swim. I am from the Cape Cod air That tastes and smells like sea salt. I am from heart attacks and cancer From aunts, cousins, and grandfathers that have passed away. I am from a big family (Most people are from my dad’s side.) I am from Sharon and Howie Who encourage me to pursue my dreams. I am from a younger brother and sister Who annoy me so much, But I still love them. I am from snoring dogs, Sunny, Guinness, and Caleb Who sleep by the fire all day. I am from running through the woods, With Caleb at my side. Dogs By: Celeste Menard Age 12 Dogs are elegant creatures Created by god. If man kind treats them wrong Dogs will be dangerous. Teach your dog to be good by Treating them with kindness And respect, If you do that they will love you forever. And this is why I say, “Be kind to your dog everyday!” Here are my poems…

The Life I Love
By: Celeste Menard
12/19/07

I am from snoring dogs, Sunny, Guinness, and Caleb
Who sleep by the fire all day.
I am from running through the woods,
With Caleb at my side.

I am from a non-fighting family,
That loves each other dearly.
I am from family dinners at home
Where the conversation is full of laughter.
Ha! Ha! Ha!

I am from the vast lakes of Cape Cod
That swallow me whole when I swim.
I am from the Cape Cod air
That tastes and smells like sea salt.

I am from heart attacks and cancer
From aunts, cousins, and grandfathers that have passed away.
I am from a big family
(Most people are from my dad’s side.)

I am from Sharon and Howie
Who encourage me to pursue my dreams.
I am from a younger brother and sister
Who annoy me so much,
But I still love them.

I am from snoring dogs, Sunny, Guinness, and Caleb
Who sleep by the fire all day.
I am from running through the woods,
With Caleb at my side.

Dogs
By: Celeste Menard
Age 12

Dogs are elegant creatures
Created by god.
If man kind treats them wrong
Dogs will be dangerous.
Teach your dog to be good by
Treating them with kindness
And respect,
If you do that they will love you forever.

And this is why I say, “Be kind to your dog everyday!”
