Website gallery updates

Just a little note to say I have updated both the original art and the pet portrait commissions galleries this evening, adding my most recent group pet portrait of Beth and Holly and adding the two recent Horse drawings I completed to the originals gallery.

Even though both of the originals are sold I thought I would add them anyway as examples of what I do and what might be available in the future, particularly as I'm enjoying equine portraits so much at the moment!

Latest Completed Commission

I completed my latest commission yesterday and after approval from the client, packed it up and put it in the post today. Here is the finished Pet Portrait:

Commission: Holly and Beth

Size: 12" x 16"

Medium: Coloured Pencil

Paper: Heavyweight Cartridge

Coming up I have the graphite pencil commission of Molly, the Cavalier Spaniel to complete and then after that I have some ideas for some drawings I would like to get completed for another local exhibition coming up in August that I would like to enter and see if I can repeat the success of the last one!

Latest Pet Portrait

Here is a work in progress from a current coloured pencil commission. It is a 12" x 16" pet portrait and the two gorgeous subjects are Beth and Holly.

New Pet Portrait

I have recently started a new pet portrait. It is a 12" x 16" coloured pencil portrait of two Boxers, Pickles & Pebbles and a West Highland Terrier, Arillus. So far I have just completed the outlines of the three:

New galleries

As I said yesterday I have just created two new galleries. The first one is for pairs and group pet portraits. I decided to put these separate as I have now done five so there's enough for the gallery not to look too empty and I think if a customer is looking for a group portrait this will give them a quicker way of looking at previous relevant commissions.

The second gallery is for people and pets, which so far only has one portrait in! I thought is was worth putting this by itself though as it will make it more obvious from the first gallery page that a portrait with a person in is an option. People and pets together is something I want to concentrate on in my own non-commission work so hopefully there will be some original artwork to go in there too.

Here are the new galleries if you want to take a look:

• Group Pet Portraits
• Pets and People
