I have just finished on a somewhat unusual commission for me – a streetscape. The painting is 35 x 45 cm in size and it is painted with acrylics on stretched canvas. It took a while for me to paint this one due to the amount of elements in the photo. There was a lot…

Dog Portrait – work in progress
I have started working on another painting this week – Sassy. The portrait is 12 x 16 inches in size and I have worked up the initial sketch and added some basic colouring. I am starting on detailing tomorrow and the portrait should be finished soon. I hope you like it so far.
Family Portrait
I have just finished working on another portrait. It is a family portrait of a cocker spaniel called Charlie and her owners. Charlie has sadly passed away and her owners wanted a portrait of her and themselves as a keepsake. To put Charlie into focus, we have decided to draw her portrait with tinted pencils…
Two German Shepherds
I have finished working on this portrait last week and scanned it just yesterday. I think it worked out very well. It has been a couple of weeks in the making and I took my time purposely. I don’t like to rush paintings, especially when they are larger in size. This portrait is 12 x…
Two German Shepherds – work in progress
I have a brand new painting on my easel! A very exciting one too 🙂 This portrait features two absolutely beautiful German Shepherds. Sadly, they have both passed away. This painting is going to be a present for their owner. I can’t reveal too much detail about this commission in case the surprise is ruined,…
Prince the Golden Labrador
I have finished working on Prince’s portrait yesterday. It was sitting on my ‘done’ shelf for a day. I wanted to make sure Prince was captured as he deserved to be. I scanned it today and adjusted the scan on the computer to match the painting. Some of the fine detail got a little lost…
Prince the Golden Labrador – work in progress
I am now working on a brand new painting. It is of a lovely golden labrador called Prince. He has sadly passed away and the client has commissioned a painting of Prince for her father, his owner. I am very fond of labradors, as you know, I have one myself, so I am enjoying working…
Chihuahua Portrait Painting
I have finished working on Marley’s portrait yesterday, but decided to keep it on the shelf for a day to make sure it was working. I scanned it now and I think it worked out quite well. The darkness of the blanket really plays off the white in Marley’s fur. He is so cute looking…
Chihuahua Portrait in Progress
I have started working on a new portrait a couple of days ago. It is of a lovely chihuahua called Marley. I just love the reference photo the client gave me. Marley looks so cute in it lying down on the blanket. He has such a lovely expression. The painting is 20 x 25 cm…
Family Portrait
I have finished this portrait today. It worked out quite well I thought. The scan is looking very close to the original, although I always feel the texture of the paper is really lost in a digital image. I hope you all like it. The drawing is 10″ x 12″ (25 x 30cm) in size…
