Spaniel Portrait on Linen

This time of year things get pretty busy here in the studio, making sure all of our clients are happy, dealing with new enquiries as there are always more this time of year than usual and also keeping close to our schedule as its important we don’t over run with the portrait timings. So far we are still on schedule however I have been delayed in blogging Connor so here he is along with the work in progress at the same time! I hope you like him! I have been working on the Sophie and daisy portrait and will post a final scan of that soon too and will also link up to the previous post with the start of the progress so that they can be linked together as this one has been going on a long time : )

    Melanie this is a lovely portrait of Connor. It brought a tear to my eye, and many happy memories of my own long departed and much loved spaniel called Lady who was the image of Connor.

    Hi Teresa,
    I am so pleased you like the portrait, the client loves it to and its going to be posted tomorrow so hopefully the recipient will have a great Christmas. Every now and again theres a dog that reminds us of our own and for me its the next portrait that I will be posting soon of the collie called Gina, she reminds me of our Jenny and has bought back a lot of memories while painting. Its amazing how sometimes a painting can say more than words.
