Artist's Comments

11x14 watercolor/colored pencil portrait of my dog, Nikki, aka The Burr. She's a beautiful Golden Retriever/Saluki mix who is about....6 now (she's a little younger in the picture). Err, yeah this took precisely 7 hours, I actually timed it this time :D Did a good chunk of this today actually. Kindof rushed it though, didn't put in all my best effort but I still like how it came out. Did this as sort of a pet portrait example seeing as I think I'm going to start advertising more for pet portraits as I need the moneystuffs.

This really looks like a photograph. :nod: Such an attention to detail, especially around the nose, eyes, and the ears. Really is a stunning piece. The coloring is even soft and where you shaded brings a lot of depth to the face an ears, heck, just overall. :thumbsup:

If I had the cash, I'd ask you to do pet portraits of my 3 cats since I suck at drawing animals. ^^;

Five words... double you, oh, double you! Quite possibly the best drawing of an animal's face I've ever seen :+fav:

Everyone's always in favor of saving Hitler's brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white shark, oooo, suddenly you've gone too far!
