Pet Portraits by Pastel Artist Hazel Middlemas


Finished Portrait of Bramble the Border terrier
This is the final finished portrait of bramble. I worked into the portrait with more layer and the added the final whites and darkest darks, which brings the painting to life. Then i completed the eyes, paying particular attention to the expression in these. One of the most importrant things that you need to look at when doing animal portraits is the shape of the eyebrows as if you get this right you should be able to capture the character of the animal.
The Owner was delighted with the finished portrait "phew"
Order now for Christmas - I know it sounds early, but once the waiting list gets to a certain point I will have to stop taking orders. Gift Vouchers are always available.
