Here is a portrait of Happy.
Happy was Cathy's dog, he passed on a few years ago.
I'm going to see Cathy today, and her brand new house that has been in the works for YEARS.
This painting is a housewarming gift for her.
9x12 pastel on pastelmat
Lots of Panpastels, Mungyo semi-hards, pastel pencils, and Senneliers.
Inspired by The Hours of Mary of Burgundy, c 1477.
The copper Panpastel and iridescent Sennelier is hard to work over...actually you can't layer over it at all except with Senneliers, which are very soft.

Here are some progress shots:


Guaranteed she will shed a tear and be overjoyed with this beautiful portrait. Well done.
