The Border Collies were photographed in a
mad hour where they relished every moment of the attention - beautiful
dogs! This is Buddy - he's the boisterous one. |
|
|||
| This is Molly - she's the quieter, sensible one. |
|
|||
| Rusty, the cat, was very bored with the dogs getting all the attention... |
|
|||
| Stretching the canvas: only the highest quality archival framing materials and canvas are used. |
|
|||
| The canvas is finished ready to paint, and also ready to hang. It is 36" square (920mm). |
|
|||
| All the photos are printed from the portrait session, then sorted and selected for the best funny face portrait shots! |

| Underpainting - basic block shapes & colours - this will be very different from the final painting - it's just the colours underneath that might glow through |
 |
|||
| Painting is finished - all in one go! Got in the zone. Delicious thick chumpy colours, slapped on with a spatula: just like icing a cake! |
