I am currently painting a Tabby Cat which was commissioned by the Argus newspaper for a competition prize, and a Greyhound which I am painting for a returning customer.

With Christmas just around the corner I am predicting a lot of commissions coming my way. Please get your orders in early!

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

2007-06-26T00:10:00.000-07:00

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
