(Westie Commissioned Portrait in Oil...In Progress)Today was a good day, I'm starting to feel a bit better after my recent dental work and was able to get some more work done on this Westie commissioned portrait I started a few weeks ago. I actually have four Westie portraits that I'm working on...I'm thinking pretty soon I may just start to get type-cast as the 'Westie artist', not that I would mind, I really enjoy painting Westies :o) I don't actually own a Westie, my Godmother does, and I have done charity work for a number of Westie rescue groups, but my 2 dogs are not too fond of the smaller pups. I actually have a New Zealand Huntaway/Kelpie (Taffy) and a Yellow Lab/Stumpy-Tailed Red Heeler (Jedha). Both were rescued off the streets of Cairns in Australia by my Aussie husband. We had them flown to Michigan last July all the way from Sydney as we would never have dreamed of leaving them behind!Their blog is Aussie Dogs Up & Over~Jedha & Taffy's Adventures in America :o)
Beautiful work! Just love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for commenting on my Hooked on Fridays post -- if you hadn't, I might never have found your fantastic blog!! Your dog paintings are just gorgeous -- I'm going to have to do lots of exploring here to make sure I don't miss anything :-)

Thank you so much :o)I do really enjoy painting pups...I grew up with dogs and being a bit of a shy girl I always felt a real connection to them...I think that's why I love painting them so much!
