All of the paintings you see on our blog are commissions from clients worldwide. We traditionally hand paint or draw every pet portrait ourselves. There's no digital trickery involved! We start by drawing out the image by hand and follow on with painting in oils, pastel or in pencil and you can follow each stage we make here on the blog on a daily basis.

Christmas in Wales…with a Wii!
Filed Under Our Studio News
Hi Everyone!
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I am just popping in to post a couple of photos of Ammy at Christmas. He certainly enjoyed himself as you can see with his treats and toys..although still taking it easy while playing!
Did Santa bring anything nice for you all this year? Nick bought me a Wii with the Wii Fit Plus with the balance board which is just so much fun! I have been running, cycling, flying like a chicken, hula hoping, kung fooing, boxing skateboarding, and having snowball fights too! There’s so much to do on there, and there’s the serious side too so I have been doing yoga and core exercises too mixed in. Even Ammy has been on the board..well he sat on it at least!! Nick also got me Snowboarding for my birthday (yes another year older..but wiser!) and I love snowboarding games so thats been great fun too.
I have also had some amazing cookery books from my family and friends, my new years resolution is to cook even more this year. I try to make all our meals from scratch with fresh ingredients, and I had a Nigel Slater and two Hugh Fernley Whittingstall books which will really help. We’ve already made the potato and leek soup with some home made crusty Ciabbatta bread from the Nigel Slater one..although I do admit to adding some double cream in for good measure….! Good job we have the wii fit!
So all in all we have had a wonderful Christmas and I hope yours has been good too! The computer has been off for the duration and its been a lovely restful week. We are both in the studio today, we are cleaning and organising, getting ready for going back to work in the New Year, sort of like an early spring clean! I hope you are enjoying yourselves wherever you are! Cheers!
