FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 23, 2009 -- MINNEAPOLIS, January 12, Value Plus is going to the dogs — and cats, thanks to a recently announced partnership with Pencil Works, and artist, Michele Kessler. Value Plus is a comprehensive, members only, household savings program from Provell, Inc., a leader in membership marketing. Value Plus subscribers will receive the exclusive opportunity to save $50 on a custom portrait that will capture and preserve the likeness, spirit, and personality of their beloved pets for years to come.

Pencil Works artist Michele Kessler will create an original, beautifully rendered pencil drawing, using a favorite photo of the subscriber's pet. Pet portraits are a wonderful way to celebrate or pay tribute to a beloved cat, dog, or other animal companion. They also make unique and thoughtful gifts for other pet lovers.

"According to the American Humane Society, there is at least one dog or cat in two-thirds of American households today. And, pet-related discounts are always popular with our subscribers, so I am very enthusiastic about our partnership with Pencil Works. At Provell, we are always looking for something fresh and new for our subscribers. We seek out unique partnership opportunities you won't find anywhere else, offers that provide our subscribers with real value. A $50 savings on an original artwork is a terrific offer," says Steve Sadler, Senior Account Executive, Partnership Marketing.

Pencil Works founder, Kessler, of Minneapolis, Minnesota is an accomplished artist who has been developing her natural talent since the age of five. She works in a variety of mediums, including pastels, pencil, watercolor, acrylic, and oil on canvas.
