beautiful sharp portrait, well done.

I could only draw my Alsatian when she was asleep - so I know just what you mean (and I won't call them German Shepherds, either!). Not an easy dog to paint in watercolour, too many colour variations and apparently random markings. I think this works, because you've conveyed his character.

Great simplicity, works well. Like Robert this is an Asatian to me.

Nicely done. I agree with all the above.

thank you carole, robert, sylvia & jeannette for your comments, i still think his eyes are not quite right but if you try to sort something it just gets muddy so i left them but thanks again. lilias
