Farther's Day Portraits

Farther's Day has been super busy for me. I have completed two pet portraits for this special day as well as being on holiday just a few days before hand. It's been a rush but it has definitely been worth it to see happy and satisfied customers. One of the orders I had is definitely made it into my favorite pieces to date. 

I feel like I don't show enough of how a painting starts off. So above it just one of the portraits I completed for farther's day. This consisted of 5 different dogs on a box canvas, size 100cm x 30 cm. It was a big portrait to do but didn't take me as long as I thought. So to hide of the pencil marks I created while drawing the dogs I used a thick white acrylic paint and added 2 layers to ensure they were completely covered. I always use Daler Rowney Acrylic Paint for all my acrylic paintings. Below is the completed canvas. I am so please with how it has come out, each dog is so different. To top it off the person who ordered the canvas has given me a 5 star rating on Facebook and was very please with the portrait. 

If you are inspired by this and have lots of animals to be featured in one canvas or similar then please email me or Facebook me to get quotes, the different sizes I offer and the style you can go for! This is my second portrait like this one, the first I did was of three cats which I gifted for Christmas 2016. I couldn't think of a more personal gift to give to someone who loves their pets. 

My pet portraits start at £15 and come in a range of different ways. Please look for the section on Pet Portraits to see the full range their. Unfortunately the portrait that I have written about isn't on there as this needs a personal quote.
