Rocky the Boxer Pet Portraits

This is my latest portrait and what a size! I think its one of the largest coloured pencils i have ever done at around 20 x 23 in size. It took quite a while as you can imagine. I’m about to pack it up now and i think im going to wrap it in a whole roll of bubblewrap!! I often wonder what my clients do with it all, i have had funny stories of clients being lost in their kitchen in a mass of bubble wrap

Funnily enough I had two Codys to paint around the same time for separate clients. This is Cody in oils. Cody is no longer with us and the clients were thrilled with their portrait and quite a few family members all wrote to me with letters of thanks which was totally wonderful.
