Stuff

Gosh I didn't realise I'd not written anything on my blog for so long. Christmas commissions are going well albeit a little slowly. I should hopefully finish them by the middle of December. I've then got one to do for myself which will be a Christmas gift for my brother ( he does know about it). The New Year will bring something a little different for me...a Classic car. I've been asked to do a 1947 Dodge which is owned by one of my customers. It's a subject I've never done before so watch this space.

I can't believe it's less than four weeks until Christmas day. It doesn't seem five minutes since the decorations were put away after last year.

Anyway hope alls well with everybody.

Charlie

Here's the Lurcher finished. This is another surprise gift, but again I've been given permission to show it as the recipient won't see it.

I'm not doing any work this weekend. We've got visitors later as we're watching the local firework display. I've got a load of food to prepare so I'd better get on with it. Hope everybody has a great weekend.

Sky

I've completed the Chihuahua and even though it is for a Christmas gift my client has given permission to put it on the internet as the recipient won't see it.

I've really enjoyed working on this piece.

Next it's a Lurcher.

Tikka

This is Tikka a Red Setter that I have just completed. I didn't get chance to blog the WIP's as I was working so you've got them all together with the finished portrait.

Next it's a Chihuahua which is a Christmas gift so I can't blog that one....sorry.

Harvey

This is another portrait that I did a few weeks ago which has been given as a Silver Wedding gift today. I've had a phone call, this afternoon, from the lady who received it and she thinks it's amazing....I love my job!!!


Crunchie

This is Crunchie the cat that I did a while ago but had to keep underwraps. He was given as a Birthday gift yesterday and his owner was pleased with the portrait.

Max finished

Max is finished subject to the owners approval. My client who commissioned me thinks it's stunning but I'm waiting for the owners approval now (it's a gift).

Next it's a Red Setter. I did a portrait of 'Tikka' a few years ago and her owner would like another portrait of her in a different pose. I'll hopefully start that one tomorrow.
