It’s been a while, but here’s a dog
Published by on June 7th, 2009 3 Comments »
The latest batch of artworks are up on my flickr and artBlog. The most recent (above) is something of a departure from previous work there, and perhaps might surprise a few regular visitors.
Before becoming wrapped in the world of the web, I earned some of my crust as an illustrator. Mostly for publishing but also other commissioned pieces such as pet portraits. I thought it was about time I revisited those subjects as an exercise in doing something a little different.
The above is the result, based on a randomly selected photograph on flickr. It was enjoyable to working like this again and I think I am going to do much more, and even take on new commissions.

This is absolutely beautiful!
Glad you like it. I have just started working on a drawing of a cat and rediscovered the differences – and additional challenges – of drawing cat fur. Dogs are just so much less “fluffy”!
Really a pleasant picture and expression is very clear. I love it and visit frequently to see more pictures
