About the Cocker Spaniel Commission of Moo
Dr. Tracey Riche, UK, contacted me in 2014 to ask about commissioning a pet portrait of her gorgeous dog 'Moo'. Tracey asked if I could draw the main pose from the reference photo which you can see left, however, she really wanted the portrait to portray Moo with dry hair. Luckily, Tracey had a photo of Moo at a similar angle, so I was able to create this along with her tufts on the top of her head too!
You might also notice that in the photos below, Moo is wearing her collar. I had initially drawn the collar in, however, Tracey asked if I could remove it, and so you can see in the scan above how it has now been cleverly drawn over. I am always happy to make amendments where I can when the client needs me to.
You can also see photos of the portrait framed, along with photos of when Tracey and Moo came to my studio to collect the portrait. I always love meeting clients, and the kettle is always on for them!
