How did you do that?

His back legs are all flying and he's fitted into her arms???

Or was he in the original painting and you photoshopped him out?

He just looks sooooo cute! I think the Jamestown worsted mills would have had A better trade card if they got Bertie to model that frilly cloak instead of the lady they chose.

Yes! Too bad they didn't call his agent.
