Jude

Today I took Oscar and Wilbur to the framers, they will be ready next week for me to collect and send on their way to the client. I will be sure to post pictures as they will both look lovely in their frames.

Here is the work I have completed so far on Jude, I'm posting a few WIP pictures as I have been scanning at various stages to post on Facebook. So here she is, hoping to have her finished by the end of the week!

Wilbur

Another Christmas commission completed! This is Wilbur, he was commissioned by the same client who ordered Oscar, they will be framed this week then shipped off in plenty time for the holidays. He is also approx 12x14 inches, completed in graphite on Fabriano Artistico paper.

Next I will be on to Jude, another Cocker Spaniel, also in graphite. I hope to get the paper cut and the line drawing completed by today with perhaps a start on some shading. Also in the queue I have Lacey Lou, a Border Terrier to be completed in pastel, and two wildlife pastel paintings to be completed. So, very busy at the moment! Until next time, thanks for checking out the blog :)

Christmas Commissions

It's nearly that time again! Last year I decided not to do any commissions as I wanted to focus on the PP Diploma. Now I only have one piece left to do so I have been taken orders for Christmas and I am nearly fully booked! Here is the first one that I have completed, Oscar, a gorgeous Cocker Spaniel puppy in graphite.

I am currently working on a portrait of a dog named Wilbur for the same client which I am hoping to get part way finished today. These two will also be framed. Then it's on to yet another Cocker Spaniel, this time an older lady named Jude. Busy busy!
