29/06: YELLOW LAB COMMISSION

I'm not getting much computer time just now - so much to organise before work begins on replacing our ceiling and removing/replacing spoiled floor and furniture ... 

This portrait was a secret commission - first wedding anniversary present for 'hubby' and he is very pleased with it I'm told.

Max - a gorgeous yellow lab who looks much younger than his 14 years!

Completed in pastels on Fisher 400 sanded paper

  3. Nice one Sue, great face, typical Lab. I like the fade out towards his hind quarters, very effective.

  4. Those really are incredible eyes Sue. I feel for you with the renovations. Pity you can't go back to the Canaries and let them get on with it.
