#dog portrait
50x70cm Acrylic painting.
This was such an important thing to do for me. I am happy that we could share this one last journey together ❤️
Snow Pup
Our old friend Polly (16) is staying with us this week. I loved how she looked sunbathing here, so I broke out the chalk pastels.
[ID ½] a low angled photo of Polly the old golden cocker spaniel sitting by an open balcony door on a blue towel which matches the hot blue sky glowing in. Behind her is a plant stand containing bright pink and purple trailing tradescantia and a spider plant, with some drooping monstera leaves framing her back in the foreground.
[ID 2/2] a chalk pastel drawing of the same scene, on a small grey sugar paper notepad. I’ve simplified the shapes and colours around her so that the focus and detail is on her sitting golden form, highlighted with pops of green, yellow, orange and blue. [End ID]
I’ve been focusing on my art lately
Mostly I’ve been painting dogs for people, but I’ve done some other stuff as well. I’m trying to make art my main source of income because I’m sick of working pointless jobs. So.
If anyone would like a painting done, I would love to paint your dog.
