What’s Up
with Dogs
in Cars??!!
For 15 years, Lightmark Press was a popular greeting card company, featuring my photos and captions on the beloved subject of dogs and cars!
WHAT’S UP WITH THEM, ANYWAY?!
My captions give my take.
I loved imagining what they were thinking and feeling—so many fun stories to tell!
After a great run, when Lightmark Press cards were sold across the US and Canada, and as far away as Australia and the Caribbean, I sold the business a year before the pandemic. I decided it was time to concentrate on a project to address the climate crisis in my local community.
Sadly, the company closed two years later.
Such a fun project, photographing the dogs of Vashon Island. I added their names, breed, and the “breed” of the vehicle they were related to on the back of every card.
People still write me to ask if I am able to send them cards that they once purchased and loved. Except for a collection of remaining inventory that is sold very inexpensively at the Vashon Senior Center, all of the most popular cards are long gone.
