That is Bo

I think Bo, is adorable.

Beautiful Bo. I love this.

Agree with the others - this is lovely!

Denise, Diane, and Sarah, thanks so much for your kind comments!

Oh those loving eyes!

I think this is great and those eyes, wow. I am really liking your pared back approach to dog portraiture and I entirely agree with you about what the viewer sees as opposed to the artist. Equally applies to portraiture too.

Thanks for your feedback, Thalia and Heather! Heather, I think leaving something loose and unfinished can be rewarding as well as vulnerable. As can representations that are so exact that something inside us hurts just to look at it. Either one can give us that special knowing, that yes, this is getting at something that is more than words. My motto is, “know when to walk away!” Thanks so much for your comments.

Such gorgeous eyes and nose! I agree it’s good to leave the viewer something to complete in their mind. Very nicely done Cory.

Tessa and Coral, how encouraging! Thanks so much.
