Dogs, like their owners, are all different. Some prefer to be remembered as they actually appear. Every now and then, however, I meet a dog who wants something a little different. These dogs see themselves dressed up—often wearing funny hats. If you have one of these creative types, I have just the solution. Consider a painting of a painting. I will carefully reproduce a masterpiece scaled to your dog's proportions. Visit my portrait gallery for a few examples of such paintings. So, let's get going! Pick up the phone and call me at 651.454.5805. You won't believe how happy you'll make that special someone—you!
My name is Barbara Greving, and I am a classically trained portrait painter who loves dogs. Imagine my surprise when I learned how unhappy and neglected my own dogs were feeling. After years of watching them play and sleep, it finally hit me, it's no accident they look so cute—they're posing. That's why I created Classic Tails. A place where you and your dog can go to have that one-of-a-kind portrait created. And it's the real deal. No digital photos or computer images. My dog portraits are painted one at a time in oil or lovingly drawn in charcoal. Whimsical, classical and just plain fun—every piece will become a family heirloom your descendants will be fighting over.
