| Julie Deans' "Pickles and Coffee" piece was created for Petsmart Charities of Canada. |
Ontario artist
Julie Deans created her “Pickles and Coffee” artwork specifically for Petsmart Charities of Canada’s spring 2008 “Just A Buck, Change Their Luck” fundraiser. Deans also creates custom pet portraits and animal art. She also volunteers for rescue organizations and shelters.
The art will be featured on several premiums given to Petsmart's Canadian customers donating at least $5 (a mouse pad for a $5 donation, a T-shirt for $10, or a tote bag for donations of $15 or more).

The program raises money for local animal welfare agencies, and money raised in each province will stay within that province.
Last year’s campaign raised more than $250,000 to support spay/neuter, adoption, education, home retention and emergency relief programs, the charitable arm of Petsmart reported. The Canadian charity has raised more than $1.4 million since 1999. The campaign runs April 12-27.
