Shitzu Poodle Cross Commission

Here is what I have done so far on this Pastel Pet Portrait commission which is to be a Christmas gift. (I have learned that  it is safe to post it here.) Still a long way to go but she really is beginning to come to life now.
I have worked a fair bit on the mouth eyes and nose and I am still applying darks on the fur before whites go over the top. You will see allot of different colours at the moment such as greens, blues and purples. Some of these colours will show in the finished portrait but they will not be so obvious. My camera has not captured the true colour of the background again but it is a lighter warmer wheat colour.
I have modified the the shape of the ear but I will probably adjust it a little more before completion.

Christmas Commission!

I have just begun a pastel dog portrait commission which is to be a gift so I am unable to post photographs at this stage. The dog is a Shitzu Miniture Poodle cross. Really cute with slight caramel colouring on the ears and around the nose and mouth. If you enjoyed this post please consider becoming a follower of my blog.
