Great Dane

You have made a beautiful job of it! I once worked as head kennelmaid at a Great dane kennels and really appreciate you sharing your talent with us thank you!

Well then that is high praise indeed, coming from someone who knows the breed intimately.... many thanks Kay

Lovely face

This is an excellent study Steve. have you seen the work of American wildlife artist Robert Bateman.. I'd put this work in the same category. Joe Rhodes

Thanks Joe, although i think i have a million more paintings to paint before i begin to approach Robert Batemans mastery..... He is one of my all time favourite artists ever since i was a teenager..... you should be a psychic .....Steve

Great. Really like the lifelike effect of his hair. His face has such character as well.

Wonderful coat; an almost photographic quality. The muscular turn of the neck and the softness of the eyes is perfect for this gentle giant. A background colour would have detracted from that beautiful brindle coat.

This is also very well done. I have been having a browse round your gallery and don't know how I have missed your work. Excellent.

Hi Steve, just having a look around your gallery and to say thank you for kind words on Minninglow. As I said on my comment page, if you put Minninglow in your search engine, loads of info will turn up. Had to comment on this gorgeous dog, he is superbly painted. Didn't know you painted animals.
