‘Misty’- Pet Dog Portrait

‘Misty’, acrylic & charcoal, 40 x 30cm

Friends beloved dog ‘Misty’ died this week so I felt I wanted to do a pet portrait for them so they could always remember her.  I had been to a Don Waters class during the week and he demonstarted by doing a portrait of his dog, a dashhound. The most important thing  to get right is the eyes as these are the focal point and what people remember most about their pets.  It was fun to do  so I may do one of our dog Zebedee next.
