About the Dog Portrait Commission of Django
Andy contacted me via email in 2017 to ask if I would be able to create a portrait of his friend's dog as a surprise present for her.
Andy had a couple of average snaps of Django but didn’t have any completely suitable to draw from, so Andy endeavored to take new photos of Django with his digital camera.
The photo shoot was a success, and you can see the photo we all chose to work from on the left. He is an absolutely stunning dog, and I thoroughly enjoyed drawing him.
Andy chose to have the portrait drawn at 18 x 14 size, which was a good size for the breed of dog. Andy wanted to give the portrait to his friend unframed so that she could choose the exact type of frame to match her home decor. Andy emailed me when he saw the finished drawing, which you can read below.
