Amazing!! Love his soulful, handsome expression, the fur textures & glossiness, the perfect attention you paid to all details--the muzzle, paws, soft surface he lays upon, etc-- a stunning portrait!
Artist Reply: Thanks. I recently visited the woman who recieved this as a present. She loves it and her dog is so handsome. He was a joy to draw.!
Artist Reply: Hi Christine. The woman who recieved the drawing opened it on Xmas Day and thought it was a photo of her beloved pet. She was thrilled when told it was a drawing. He is very handsome indeed. I'm meeting her next week so am looking forward to that (and meeting Zak). See them on my site at www.ChumleysArt.com.
Artist Reply: Jerry. Thanks for your nice comments. Coming from an artist such as you is a real complement. Have you seen my biro art? There's not many of us in the UK. Bye for now.
Artist Reply: Thanks to you for your nice comments. I'm still learning and am getting better every time I pick up the pencils. I am drawing one of Pat Abbotts birds for a competition at the meoment so look out for that one....... Bye for now.
