Zipper is a very handsome Weimaraner dog who lives with Laura and Bill. Standing against the green of the background his coat is filled with blues and purples and the way it shines emphasises his lovely shape. Truly the super models of the canine world! I’ve picked a wide, narrow format to show off his shape. It’s a 20 x 10 inch oil painting and it’s being painted in softly blended layers.

Weimaraner’s have amazing eyes.

This hasn’t made it as far as the easel yet, it’s still in the ideas stage. Alfie, a Bengal cat and Ailsa, a Doberman live with Kathryn and their other feline friends. I really like this pose of the two great friends but haven’t decided on the background yet.

And here they are as the finished acrylic painting.
