Beau - watercolor aprox. 8" x 9Matted to 11" x 14"
I've completed my commission of Beau. I was pleased with the results of this portrait and although I don't often do portraits, this one came together pretty easy. He's a handsome Australian Sheep Dog and it was a pleasure to try to capture his look on paper. Note, he has one eye that is pink and the other is black.
Hi! WOW This is a winner! I am sure the customer is very pleased!

Thank you Nancy. Yes ... I think she liked it, she cried. Uh, maybe that isn't a good thing, huh? *wink.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb and Helen. I was worried about being able to pull it off ... Portraits alway frighten me. I think I need to do lots of detail to capture the likeness....... not necessarily so.
Faye, thank you. The owners also said the same thing. I'll count this painting a success. Commission's are nerve-racking, *wink.
you did such a beautiful job with this.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I'm not surprised the owner was overcome by emotion.
ReplyDeleteAnd thank you for visiting my blog :)
This is beautiful!! Such lovely character and spirit you captured!

I wish that I could do justice to our English setter's lovely head as you have done here. He's gorgeous.
