Jack Russell Pet Painting by Artist Rachel North

This is ‘Diesel’ the little Jack Russell who came to live with his forever Mum and Dad when he was about 5 years old. Life had been tough for Diesel up until then. Sadly mistreatment and abuse were what he experienced in his early years rather than the love and kindness that every living creature deserves. But then the day arrived when he came to live at his new home where his future Mum and Dad would love, care and protect him for the rest of his life. Diesel repaid his loving family with trust, loyalty and a remarkable placidity that came to be his trademark. 17 years was a grand old age for this happy little chap to reach and he is greatly missed by his family. I was truly priveleged to paint this Special Keepsake and I’m sure it will evoke many happy memories of life with Diesel for many years to come.
