Thanks all. As my dogs are old, Mist is 14.5 and Jess is about to turn 13, I thought I'd better hurry up and get their portraits done so that I don't cry the whole time trying to do one when they have passed.

I work in mixed media using acrylic, watercolour pencil, coloured pencil, black drawing pen and some graphite maybe in places.

To see more work, you can visit my website in my profile. I do commisssions and have just sent one off to the U.S of a wirehaired dachshund called Lucy. You can see her portrait in my website too.

I don't make a living from this yet but, hopefully, someday, I will and combine it with photography, another interest I have.
