ORIGINAL DOG PORTRAITS

 

Hi, I love painting dogs and would be happy to discuss painting an Original Watercolour Pet Painting with you. Just reach out by email nora904@yahoo.com Send me 4-5 photos of your pet dog. (Closer up is best). Let me know the eye colour and if you want a collar and tag added to the Head and Shoulders painting. 

The Watercolour Dog Portraits are painted on paper, professionally adhered to a board. You will have a few choices for your background colour which you'll see around the edges of your painting.

They are READY TO HANG! Wire and hooks are on the back so, all you need is a nail and a wall. ; )

 

Finished Painting - 10x10" board. The painting is 8x8" and the border is 1"around. The board will sit out approximately 1" out from your wall.

Finished 3-4 weeks from confirmed commission start date. 

Total - $300 Canadian Dollars. E-transfer, cash or cheque. 

Non-refundable down payment $50.

Original Watercolour Painting on 3/4"deep panel

Troublemakers, but cute!

Two Pups

10"x10" cradled panel with 8x8" original watercolour painting.

I drew these two pups, which were sooooo cute, while at a cafe enjoying a sunny day. I love the striped shirt vs. the flower shirt, not to mention the contrast with the checkered chair backs. Lots of fun stuff to paint!

This is my new way of presenting my paintings. It took some time to perfect it, but the painting is completely adhered to the panel, painted with gouache. I love painting a strong vibrant colour for the background. It's like it's own frame so, it's ready to hang. Varnished too!

Back to School!

Dogs go back to school in September... don't they? ; ) This smart Husky sure does.  Well, more like go to the beach and fetch sticks and splash around in the water...  #hehe Seriously, I love the fall and I guess because of school, I still feel like September is the start of a 'new year'.

Bernese Mountain Dog - so lovely. I thought I'd title it pause, because he's taking a little break. And then I thought... oh... paws! So naturally the title became "pause... and paws" Heehee. I do like painting dogs, especially when they have darks and lights in their fur colours, that way there's lots of colour contrast.

I love the glow of light behind these adorable Kingfishers, it shows off their distinctive crowns. The bigger one is peeking around the smaller one. #socute

Dogs are so awesome! This German Shepherd has lots of warm and cool colours in his fur - so fun to paint in watercolour. And the title... was a no-brainer. ; )

I really enjoyed painting this patient little companion, with all his warm browns and oranges contrasting some cool blues. What a little honey bun!

tortoise shell glasses and a grey cat

$100 - 8x10"original watercolour painting

I love the way this portrait, or should I say portraits, asks the viewer to move their eyes back and forth from the woman to the cat, to the woman, to the cat, to the woman... well you get the idea. ; )

Ginger

I painted this little 5x7" watercolour commission for a new client. What a honey their dog is!! I love that her little front paw is off the ground as she runs towards her owner. : )

Dogs, Dogs, Dogs!

As you can see, I've been sketching and painting dogs lately.

The slideshow was fun to put together, with help of the free slideshow app, although it's a bit tricky to line the photos up nicely, let alone remembering to take them along the way! It's not a great video, so I may upgrade to a better slideshow app...!

The four drawings were done in my sketchbook with 6B pencil.

Happy Year of the Dog!!
