Louis by Lynda Swift

Not surprised. You have done this so well, with the shiney woolly hair, great

Very nice work with the pencils Lynda. Difficult coat to paint. I agree with Carole a lovely surprise.

I had to do a black poodle for a commission 2 years ago; the hardest thing I ever did. Mine was watercolour and was a nightmare. Well done. he's maybe lacking a little shadow under his muzzle but the fur works well. If you do another try adding some blues and reds into the coat for shine.

Thank you, folks. Interesting comment, Diana - apart from his collar & tag, he's done entirely in blue & brown - no black.
