Monty - The Old Sea Dog

Comments

Another wonderful portrait. Monty looks a real character with that earnest expression on his face. You have totally cracked how to do these portraits and each one I see fills me with awe at how far you have come. (P.S. Poppy was like Monty - we always said that she should have been on the England cricket team as she was a deadly accurate catch!)

I missed this back last year, but it's just popped up on a sidebar: a lovely dog - beautifully captured.

A portrait of Monty, my son's family dog, who lives in Jersey and spends a great deal of time in the sea! Decided to paint him while wet after a game of cricket on the beach where he was the best fielder I have every seen! (Pastel on velour).
