It's been awhile since I've done a vintage inspired dog portrait, so I decided to paint one this past week. I decided on a Westie as I find them so fun to paint, and with a name like 'Baron von Gizmo II' how could I resist?! This piece may already be spoken for, but if not, it will become available in the next couple of days. Keep in mind only 11 weeks remain until the holidays!;)

(*note: I replaced the photo, but there is still a glare coming from the right, I'll have to see if I can get a better photo in the next day or two...paintings always look better in real life!:)

This is just amazing, Lara! Great work as usual. xx
ReplyDeleteHe's such a little cutie. Love the suitcase too. Almost like he's saying "don't go" or "take me with you, please."
ReplyDeleteThank you!I did a similar one over a year ago and it was so popular I thought why not do another :) I love pairing the pups with something vintage...and you are right the suitcase makes it seem as if he's saying 'don't leave'!
ReplyDeleteThis is so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you!I'm hoping to get a better photo today, but it looks like it's going to be a typical grey day in Michigan! Ugh!
ReplyDeletevery cute:)

Your westie has turned out very cute! His white fur turn out magnificently. I'm sure white objects are tricky to paint correctly. I love the suitcase too. Of course, lots of quilt shops might use a suitcase like this to display fat quarters of fabric.
ReplyDeleteThank you & you are so right, painting anything white can be quite a challenge, because nothing is truly all white! :)
ReplyDeleteSo sweet. You do great week. Can't help but fall in love with that dog. Have a great week. The Twins
ReplyDeleteThank you! You too!
