Description
Still practising painting with oils. Canvas sized 27 x 35 cm (about 11 x 14 inches).
My neighbour asked me to paint a portrait of her dog "Suffeli", an already 11 years old lady (Welsh Corgi). Here it is - but I haven't given it her yet; so if you've got any crits or suggestions I'd be happy to hear them! Thank you! (btw: I even get a fee of this painting:-)
I hope this painting will be accepted also as an image for 2D Forum's July Theme - Exploring textures and surfaces.
Thanks for your interest. I'd be really happy if you've got some time to leave your comment here too. Thanks!
I deeply appreciate your comments, and I thank you all from the bottom of my heart, for your words under my previous pictures.

It's beautiful, Titta; there's something in the doleful facial expressions of dogs that fascinates us humans, perhaps it's a sadness that we empathise with, but cannot express ourselves; this, you've successfully captured in your beautiful portrait.
Exquisite artwork! Bravo!
Titta, this is fabulous. You really did marvels in capturing the different textures of Suffeli's fur, and the colors are great. I really have to agree whole-heartedly with WeeLaddie. Everything said is right on target as far as I am concerned. Excellent painting.
Wonderful painting ... I'm sure that Suffeli is happy with this too. What's not to like about it? I love the fur and, of course, Suffeli's expression is priceless. Well done!
....you have a very lucky ( and soon to be very happy ) neighbor ..... ( perhaps you could move on to the Queen of England's corgi's next ! ) -- would love to see this painting in the flesh to get all the nuances ---- you are a painter par excellance.
beautiful oil painting of this sweet welsh corgi !! excellent painting style that is still so uniquley you!!! .... she will treasure it i know!! ***** !!!
Agree with all above, you've captured her mood and did a great work with the fur. Brilliant picture!
What a lovely painting! I'm sure she will love it. And you did such a nice job with this. She looks very much like a dog that was part of our family years ago. Thanks for the memories.
Well you deserve a fee for this, Titta! The real test here will be to impress Suffeli's owner, something I think you will be able to do...
LOVELY!!!
looks great!!!
Agree with Nigel and all of the above, your client will love this Titta!
Thanks for your comment on my little landscape Titta and I cant tell you where the little guy is, maybe he is taking some vacation ;o) I am sure that your neighbourhood will love this! Paintings are something very personal and esp. portraits, wich shows not only the object itself, like on a photo. Something very personal always shines through on a portrait. Love it ;o)
Lovely painting Titta,your neighbor will be happy! You caught her expression so wonderfully, colored by your tenderness. Your oilbrush work is excellent!
Perfectly done, marvelous expression! It's a pleasure to see true traditional painting even for the Photoshop teacher that I am!
Excellent image.
