Latest Work - Golden Retriever

This is another of my recent paintings - been busy getting commissions finished before Christmas. I loved the pose of this dog - he looked happy in the photo, and it was a brilliant photo to work from (always helps!). Again this is painted in soft and hard pastels on velour paper.

Recently Completed Work - Part 2

This is the second of a pair of portraits for the same customer. A study in tones rather than colour. Leo and Bella, two beautiful Siamese cats.

Recently Completed Work

Its been quite busy lately, and as I combine painting pet portraits with working as a cat groomer and cat-sitter I have been a bit slow in updating my blog! This is a recently completed portrait, of Leo the Siamese, in a typical Siamese pose. This is painted with soft and hard pastels on my favourite velour paper, and is one of a pair of portraits for the same customer.

A New Website for my Pet Portraits

All change again! I decided to try a new type of website for my pet portaits and thought a blog was a nice idea because you can get to see 'whats new', 'works in progress' etc. Customers will be able to see previews of their portraits and I hope to include lots of interesting 'stuff' for everyone! New content will be added shortly, this is by way of a quick introduction and just a little taster of one of my very first pet portrait commissions, Helen's beautiful and much missed Tiggy.
