Yellow Lab pet portrait paintings in oil Sandy in the snow with red scarf

"Sandy"
10x8 inches / oil on panel
SOLD
Sandy, a beautiful Yellow Lab, is depicted here in a cheerful red scarf while she's paused from a moment of playing in the snow!  I loved painting her nose all covered in snow as well as her chubby tummy with the cool light of the snow reflecting upwards. 

This is the third painting to be posted this week with two more planned.  Trying to catch up on orders as everything must be shipped before the holidays!  To view my curernt commission schedule please scroll down.

"Lilly"
8x10 inches / oil on panel
SOLD
Lilly, a 10 month old Bichon puppy, is a most precious little ball of fluff pictured here in profile on a soft, sage green cushion.  I could almost feel her delicate curls of fur as I painted.

Rusty in Red Scarf Dog Portrait

Rusty
12x12 inches / oil on panel
SOLD
Rusty is such a charmer! Painting his silky fur, mauve pink nose, deep brown eyes and to top it off, his adorable little scarf with paw prints and bones was a sheer delight!  Following are two more images of the painting after color adjustment to remove excess red.  Also, you'll see in the client photo below that I adjusted the pillow covers to provide more contrast to Rusty's lovely fur.

Update: I'm back!

A quick note -- I'm just now back to work in my studio after a leg injury that left me severely incapacitated. It set me back about 10 days in my schedule but I'm already putting in overtime to catch up! This week I'll complete Rusty, Scottie & Fujee -- maybe even Lilly, Penny and Sandy.
