"Cairo and Sophie"

Two new pup portraits for a family who lost them both within a month of one another. 

The first little guy is Cairo and the second one is Sophie. 

I had fun with the backgrounds once i figured out what it was i wanted there. 

Both are acrylic on gallery wrapped canvas. 

24" X 30".  

"Morning Star II"

I've painted this sweet girl a few times now from different angles. 

She is a commission for a lady who wanted her for a special spot in her home. 

I was not sure if it would work using red here for the background because there 

is a fair bit of red in the subject, but i really like the outcome. 

Hopefully the client will agree!

"Pequito #2"

This is a new version of Pequito. I did not think the bedroom was quite in line with the pup on the first version. Sorry Vincent but i had to take some liberties with your beautiful work and jam up the colours a wee bit. I'm feeling much better about it now as there is a unity that was lacking in version 1.

Oh, but acrylic is just so much fun.
