Title: Flintlock...amazing act of kindness
Post by: marshboy on March 19, 2014, 10:28:38 AM
Some time ago, I had our very own Flintlock (Wess) combine some photographs of one of my Labradors into a drawing.  I was ecstatic with the final result...it came out beautiful.

The bird in my dog's mouth on the left is a prairie chicken.

Later, Wess sent me an email...he said he wanted to give me something.  I was puzzled, and eagerly awaited his gift.  When it arrived, I was stunned.

A prairie chicken!!!

Here are both together, proudly hanging in my living room.

I definitely did nothing to deserve such a fine gift from a kind man.
Thanks again, Wess!

He's a bighearted rascal for sure. I'm right proud to call him friend.

Those are awesome.  Wess definitely has some amazing talent and an all around great guy from what I've seen on here.  I purchased one of his charcoal drawings a little over a year ago and I love it.

That's about as good as it gets, right there!!

Wess is a good man..His integrity is off the charts. I do need to get him enrolled in my "Charm School" program, Just to smooth out his rough edges... :toothy12:
