Meg the mutt – which I called her affectionately – Sadly she died unexpectedly a few months after I did this portrait of her! I was told by the commissioner that it was the best thing he had ever had done for his Mother because of this fact. She was a lovely to draw.
A pastel drawing done for a friend of my daughter. I was very pleased with the techniques I achieved by hammering the pastel as it gave just the desired effect of fluffiness and a very true likeness of Meg. See below!
Meg for real!

outstanding! Looks like I can reach out and pet her fur.
Thank you so much.
I read your tribute to Tom Dog today with a lump in my throat and tears streaming down my face, as it took me back to when I lost my first dog Sandy. Only a dog owner can know that feeling. I am so sorry for your loss.

What an utterly amazing pastel drawing, I’m totally in awe, you are THE most talented artist 🙂
Thank you so much I really appreciate your kind words 🙂 I am pleased you like it. One of my favourite things in art had been doing pet portraits
