He looks like if I touched his nose, it would feel wet!
Wonderful job and don't you love the color of the background? It really makes him pop out there...I did a Great Dane portrait on tinted matboard and it was such a great change from a white background. This should do very well for the fundraiser. You are wonderful for doing that for these sweet dogs.
Teddy is adorable, so life-like, so cute! I am amazed with this piece - such delightful softness in the fur, exceptional attention to detail, and that sweet 'puppy dog' look in his eyes- all dog lovers know that look - lol! This is also done for a very wonderful cause, and I'm sure it will help raise money! Greyhounds and Whipets are some of my all time favorite dogs - what a lovely cause you are supporting with this beautiful and sweet portrait! :)
Artist Reply: Thanks Jane, I have really enjoyed doing this piece. Greyhounds have the most beautiful eyes.
