I've always loved animals and art. That these two obsessions became thoroughly entwined seemed completely natural right from the beginning. It is my hope that you will enjoy both the animals and the art you will see on this site.
Welcome to the Kennel Studio!

In 1977 the first Kerry Blue, Blujac's Casey Cu Blae, C.D. came into our home as a boisterous puppy. Dear "Casey" very patiently taught both Jack and me all about Kerry Blue Terrier personality. Casey was a full brother from a repeat breeding of the Ashby's wonderful Ch. Blujac's Afternoon Delight, a Kerry of great character. Although Casey wasn't quite the physical specimen his brother was, he did not lack any of the Kerry family pride. One of the most intelligent dogs I've ever known, Casey was tough on dogs sometimes, but unfailingly loving and gentle to people, especially children. He was all the breed should be, fearless and fun-loving. |


Having always loved the wire coated terrier breeds it was only a matter of time before another came to Elf Loch. Knowing the stamina required to strip and condition an Airedale was more than I wanted to tackle any longer, we finally settled on a Wire Fox Terrier, a breed which Jack's family owned when he was a child. In 1987 our wonderful little "Venus", later to become Ch. Fyrewyre Daystar, arrived. If a "Kerry Blue stew isn't a strong enough brew, throw in a Wire or two" NEVER a dull moment!
A word about the one and only Smooth Fox Terrier (so far!) we co-owned, Ch. Pemsmoof Tooright Fulltilt (see WFT page) "Ace" shared our home for a number of years after his show career, going on in retirement to become a therapy dog and a first rate hunting dog . One day we hope another Smooth finds its way to Elf Loch. |

Finding inspiration in nature has always been a staple of artists everywhere. Although I've illustrated many different subjects, I've found myself drawn back to the animals, particularly those with which man has chosen to share his life. Dogs are a favorite subject, although cats, horses and other animals have been models for past works. Exploring various media has helped maintain my desire to create. |
