    So impressed with the amount of personality you capture in your pet watercolours.

    No wonder your human recipients have been so happy!

    I am really in awe of your style, your prolific output and your obvious joy in doing it.

    What more can I say!

    You're a marvel.

    thank you so much CM for the lovely comments, I do enjoy painting pets and its so nice to see that everyone is happy with my work and the owners enjoy their paintings it makes me very happy that they have chosen special places in their homes to display their pet portraits.
    flash and oscar the bassett hounds portrait is in the art shop getting framed and the owners are displaying it in their lounge, so looking forward to seeing it, just cant wait.it makes it so worth while to put a smile on everyones faces including mine [​IMG]

    Fantastic pics Rosa, you capture the expressions amazingly.

    Ive seen quite a lot of animal pictures and often they look 'wooden', but yours are true to life with and with expression.

    thank you dee and pro gard,I wouldnt be happy iff i didnt get them just right, the german shepherd seems to take longer to paint, than some of the others.
    just been told the bassett hounds have been framed in a nice dark frame, they have it at home not up yet on their wall, they are going to take pics to show me, so will put it up as soon as i recieve them, cant wait to see it, my friend said she thinks its fantastic and they are thrilled to pieces with it.
