What a winning dog portrait this is! I love the 'fish-eye' up close perspective on his nose, and his colorful color too. It makes me smile, and gives me that warm feeling we get when we pet a dog!!
ReplyDeleteThe expression that you captured of Jersey is amazing Suzanne, HIS FAMILY WILL LOVE IT!!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you do it, Suz!! There is always so much character in your dog paintings. Just really amazing and I'm sure that the client will absolutely love this portrait!

ReplyDeleteYou have so captured the heart of Jersey. We had a Greyhound and they are so very sweet. That personality trait just shines through this piece, Suz. A beautiful beautiful piece that just touches my heart.
ReplyDeleteYour eyes tell us everything...

Greetings from Bilbao/Un saludo desde Bilbao, Susanne!
Stunning portrait Suzanne. I have to agree will everyone else, the eyes say it all!
ReplyDeleteLove love love LOVE it!
ReplyDeleteOh my - How could they possibly not?
ReplyDeleteI love the way you have composed his head - I almost feel as though if I get too close, he might lick my face! And the brightly coloured collar finishes it of beautifully :0)
Wow, wow, wow. Love how he fills up the frame. The eyes say it all - super-expressive. Fantastic job Suzanne!
ReplyDeleteIts fabulous! I love the 'up close' viewpoint, so dog like to want to see what you're doing isn't it?
ReplyDeleteThey will adore it without a doubt. I know I do.
Oh I loves him!! Look at those eyes! And that angle is terrific. You've captured him perfectly! Of course his family will love him, I'm sure it will bring them to tears to see their sweet boy's face like this. :):)
ReplyDeletethis is so adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteThose eyes look so alive!You are jut awesome :)
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful liquid eyes, beautiful. A face to fall in love with.
ReplyDeleteYou just know that Jersey is seriously considering licking the viewer's nose and then nuzzling a bit with that soft wet nose.
ReplyDeleteThey will love this portrait.
kissy kissy kissy - c'mon, Jersey!
ReplyDeleteSuz, you really "got" him - he is phenominal and I know his family will love his portrait.
Hi there Suzanne!... If the eyes be "the portals of the soul"... and I believe that they are... then "You" have captured Jersey's essence forever!
ReplyDeleteAs always... your own keen and sensitive eye gleans what lies without... and your heart takes "you" "within"... and your brush bridges both. Absolutely... stunningly... masterful Suzanne!
Good Painting!
Warmest regards,
Bruce
GREAT!!!
ReplyDeleteJersey has "loyal friend" painted all over him. Just lovely, Suzanne.
ReplyDeleteAwesome!! My favorite of your's so far Suzanne!! The red trim on the color just kills me, but the soulful eyes and big nose perspective--really nice!!
