Title: Chilli (English Springer Spaniel)
Painted By: Melanie Phillips
Size: 24" x 18" (60 x 45cm)
Medium: Oil on Canvas
Year Painted: 2006
Client: Commission UK
Testimonial: Melanie Yes it was a great success thank you! Lindy plans to write to you seperately. Unfortunately Chilli is still some way from a full recovery and although there are glimpses of the dog (puppy really) we had before, there is still a long way to go. Whatever the outcome, the portrait will be a terrific permanent memory. Hope you are well and not working too hard! Best regards Ian x

Dear Melanie Please excuse me for not contacting you sooner.
I LOVE my portrait of Chilli.......as you know she had a terrible time and thankfully is now mending slowly.
She has to have another op at the end of June in the hopes that her insides can be improved . Although she appears well, the illness damaged her intestines and she is so young we want to try and make life easier for her. Ian explained how stressful the whole portrait project was....knowing that if she didn't make it, the present wouldn't have seemed appropriate quite so soon after. BUT, she did, and we can all enjoy the fabulous painting. Phew! Thanks for all your interest in her recovery.
Lindy
