Pastel Portraits and Commissions

Capturing the Spirit, the Grace, and the Beauty

Well, I thought I would update my website with a blog, where I will display new works, current commissions and just keep you all informed with whats new.

 

I have been busy still getting organized from the move to Alberta, working a full time job, and working on commissions. I rarely find time to create artwork just for myself.

Today, however, I set up our new puppy Diego with a pair of my pink cowboy boots. I got some adorable reference photos, and created this:

 

 

Feel free to comment! There will still be some tweaking to do, but I kind of like it so far!

As usual, you never cease to amaze! You have such a talent. Diego and the pink cowboy boots is just beautiful. I have never met the puppy but you have captured such a wonderful expression! He looks like he's just had a great big run / play, taking a rest, and ready to jump back into it at any given moment!

By the way, there isn't a day goes by that I don't admire the fabulous picture you did of my "Ivan".

Take care and continue your God given talent!
