Trek the Dog Canvas Painting

This is my painting of Trek the Dog looking on innocently towards his loving owner. This painting took me around 5 days to paint on a 16" x 12" thin edged canvas.

The actual photograph of Trek which the client presented to me shown Trek sitting on his favourite chair which we used as a basis for the surrounding colour, with the rich burgundy/red tones matching Treks black fur perfectly but not stealing his limelight. The colour is made to a fade ever so slightly near the canvas edge.

Billy the Mischievous Jack Russell Dog Canvas Painting

This is my painting of the iconic Billy the Jack Russell. This painting took me around 3 days to paint on a 16" x 12" canvas thin edged canvas.

The actual photograph of Billy which the client presented to me shown Billy running on a pebble beach which looked nice but I proposed the idea to really show how Billy could be the centrepiece of the room by incorporating a strong black background that has a beautiful contrast in colour to Billy, the black fades to a slight grey near the canvas edge.

Black Labrador in Snow Canvas Painting

This medium scale canvas painting (24 x 18 inch) is my clients beloved pet Labrador dog in the snow. This painting was created in a mono-tone style with just black, grey and whites acrylic paints.

I have incorporated a practice that I like to use more often nowadays which is to take pictures of my work in a natural light and then to take pictures in a dimly lit area with the cameras flash enabled. In the past I would take pictures of my work and for whatever reason the photographs would never capture the colours correctly.
