Competition Time

I have been asked to commission a portrait as a competition prize from vetpro.co.uk
The winner of their comp will get a free watercolour portrait of a pet of their choice, courtesy of RIG Recruitment Agency

New Studio

A Quiet Day for Pet Paintings
Hopefully have a chance to move some of my Portrait kit up to the loft where I am creating a new Portrait Studio.

Cats & Dogs Portraits

It seems the number of Dog portraits I am commissioned to paint, almost doubles the amount of Cats I am asked to paint. Could this mean Dogs are more popular than Cats or just that they make better paintings? http://www.pet-paintings.co.uk/gallery.htm

Portrait of two Cats

I have just completed the portrait of Dusty and Prozac, a lovely pair of cats.
The cat portrait can be seen here http://www.pet-paintings.co.uk/dusty_prozac.html
It is a 16 x 12" portrait completed in watercolour.
