Debra,
I wasn't clear about whether just the pet portrait business is picking up for you now that the economy is strengthening, or portraits in general. Even though I haven't heeded my own advice, it seems to me that one of the few art markets that remains consistent and reliable is animal owners (horses are also always strong for those who live in the right place). I'd like to think that portraiture is doing better now. I tend to side with the economists. It's not so much a matter of the economy getting stronger and people having the means to invest in a portrait (at least among the demographic inclined to want painted portraits), but rather the confidence to go ahead and spend.
