progress on painting” Toffee” Hope I have the background right for the client, but it should be right for the composition and show up “Toffee” well, I’ve darwn in the main facial features and now applying the main areas of colour – this may take some time , there are a lot of subtle shades to get right before painting in the main features.

Just starting a commission to paint Portrait of “Toffee” a lovely Golden Retreiver, the client requested the background in Autumn tone , so I’ve used raw sienna and burnt sienna over a base of sap green fairly dark to allow the very blonde tones of Toffee to stand out .

Yorkshire portrait / landscape artist – pet portraits

October 28th, 2010

Just completed another commission a christmas present again, they are certainly coming in now .

This is Barney a Border terrier pup, full of mischief from the looks of him.

The best way I could think of doing the portrait as the client had a restricted budget was to use 190lb Not watercolour paper do the body colour with watercolour and the detail with acrylic allowing me to highlight his hairy face !

Hope you , and the client ,like the result , always a nervy time , but I have e-mailed it to them so they will know what they are getting before I turn up to deliver it .

portrait artist york/yorkshire pet portrait artist completes work

October 27th, 2010

Here is the completed triple portrait of the 3 Labradors I started last week, who I now Know as – from left to right – Sugar, Teddy and Cocoa.

painted on a background of Dulux mid-umber soft sheen paint !! – to match the wall where it will eventually hang,

Three very different dogs , I have thoroughly enjoyed developing their individual characters which I hope is apparent to the viewer, its amazing the difference in colours and the multitude of tones in the coat of each of them.

June 24th, 2010

Fianally finished after a lot of interruptions , I feel I have achieved what I wanted , a pleasing painting in autumn tones featuring the 2 dogs rather than a painting of just 2 dogs, so just to sign and varnish and deliver to my client.
