“There are many reasons why people choose have their dogs painted, but above all the one true reason is love.  With the joy they bring you each day; capturing a moment in a painting is something to treasure for many years to come.”

“Anyone who owns a dog is familiar with "the gaze", that hypnotic stare demanding reciprocation. It can seem to hold a world of mystery and longing. I paint the eyes almost photo-realistic to make it the central focal point and the rest of composition with a looser and more artistic approach.”
