I am now working on a brand new portrait. It is a pencil portrait 10 x 12 inches (25 x 30cm) in size. It is of the client’s father who sadly passed away. It is going to be a special keepsake for the client. I have completed the sketch over the last couple of days and…

Update on new finished portraits
I have been very busy in the studio over the last few weeks and I never got time to update the blog. I will be working on a new family portrait soon and I will update this space with progress pictures. I have finished two family portraits that have gone to the clients and they are…
Three Black Labradors – Pencil Portrait
I have finished this portrait earlier in the week. I was so busy in the studio with all my commissions, that I didn’t scan it straight away. Here it is though, I think it is looking quite well. I hope the client will like it. I just love labradors (well, of course, I have one…
Final Scan of Brodie and Bruar’s Portrait
Brodie and Bruar are two gorgeous black labradors whose portrait I have been working on for the past week or so. They are just so lovely and the reference photo was a little different. Looking down at the two dogs, with some stones at their paws, I think the composition works really well. This portrait…
Two Black Labradors – work in progress
I have made some progress on Brodie and Bruar’s portrait over the last couple of days. I am now almost finished with one and moving on to finishing off the entire portrait. I wanted the shading to be very dark as they are black dogs. I think it is looking good so far. I am…
Two Black Labradors – work in progress
I have been working on a new portrait. It is of two gorgeous black labradors called Brodie and Bruar. They look so lovely together, so close and the composition is a little different this time. Instead of looking at their eye level, they are looking up at us. I am really enjoying drawing this portrait…
Two German Shepherds
I have finished working on the portrait of Bella and Audrik, the two german shepherds, I have been working on for the last week or so. It worked out quite well at the end. It took a little longer than anticipated, because I made a few changes on the way. The size really works well…
Bella and Audrik’s portrait in progress
I have made some progress on the painting of Bella and Audrik, the portrait of two German Shepherds I have started last week. I have now added the first coat of colours everywhere on the canvas. This step is to work out what is going where really when it comes to colour. I always try…
Portrait of two German Shepherds
I am now working on a new dog portrait. It is of two German Shepherds, Bella and Audrik. I am very excited about this painting. I just love the composition, the background has a bit of snow around and it will work very well with the colouring of the dogs. The painting is square in…
Family portrait
Hello everybody. I have finished another pencil family portrait. I have scanned it today. It is always hard to capture all the detail of the pencil in the scans, but I did my best. The originals look so much better. I have to practice with the scanner (or just get a better one :)). I…
