Goldie, Gypsy and Shadow

Finally, Goldie (top), Gypsy and Shadow's portraits are done.

You can read more about them here.

Some of the pics I used as reference photos for these portraits. 

Chyenoa chose the setting from an earlier portrait I did.

  

A beautiful Shepherd called Luke

Growing up, all I wanted to do was draw well. I dreamt of spending my time drawing horses, my favourite subject. I had no idea that in creating a picture for a client, I would be giving them so much more than just a picture.


I'm honoured and filled with gratitude that I can create something which evokes a response like this one:


Hey Col, my dad was in tears this morning when we gave him his gift ... guess its still pretty recent that we lost Luke, but he thought the portrait was beautiful! Tks so much!!!

A portait of an animal you have a connection with is like a bridge between the two of you. It's a tangible token across time and space linking two souls for eternity.

A Staffie called Zeus

Another of Belinda de Bruin's much loved dogs, Zeus, the Staffie.
