Peppy times two!

This painting is of my own Weimaraner, Peppy. Both the images are of him. I wanted to do a watercolour painting of him but couldn’t decide which image to use. In the end I combined both! Lovely image but scary thought – One Peppy is quite enough. As most Weimaraner owners would probably admit, they don’t think they are dogs, I actually do think He thinks he is human! Its almost like having a baby but it never grows up!! They are a beautiful but demanding breed. See other paintings/drawings of Peppy and his litter sister, Hettie in Animal portraits

Hettie – Why So Sad?

This is a portrait of a bitch from the same litter as My Peppy! With a face like that, looks like she certainly knows how to get what she wants! How could you not give in to that?!!!

Molly

Whilst drawing this portrait of Molly I was quite aware that her face on the photograph is quite twisted, around the muzzle and forehead region, and I had to resist the temptation to ‘straighten’ her features. Firstly had I done so, it would therefore NOT have been a true representation of Molly, and secondly, THE very reason Molly was bought by her owners as a pup was the fact they felt drawn to her because of her slightly sad disposition in the features of her face. Not only were Molly’s owners pleased with the portrait, they were literally overcome with emotion as they think she is just perfect!

My Friend’s Dog – Poppy

I am always on the lookout to broaden my portfolio with new pet portraits. Once again I used one of my favourite mediums – pastel, to create a simple soft textured animal likeness. Poppy proved to be a lovely subject. I gave my friend the portrait as a present for her encouragement in showing me basic patchwork techniques.

Two special pooches

 I did this pet portrait sadly after the pets had passed away and only had small sections of dogs on different photographs to work from. Meaning I had to compose the portrait as seen above. The portrait now has pride of place in my friend’s home where it instils fond memories

‘He’s being a baby again!’

This is a portrait of my dog Peppy. with his favourite toy! It is one of a series of pastel pictures I have done of him over the years. Every time he suckles on his dog we say, ‘He’s being a baby again!’ to which he gives us the look you see above. He also gets and incredible ‘pinkness’ to him around the muzzle and eyes when he is tired or comforted.
