Cardinal #3

I do believe I have Cardinal fever. I keep seeing more at my feeder and I keep snapping their photos and then I have to paint them. These three were painted before Christmas maybe I will continue the

series in 2013.

I created this portrait of my granddaughter from a cell photo photo she took of herself while riding in the car with her mom. Windows were open and her hair was blowing which  created a wild effect. I titled it "Aldabella" which means beautiful in Italian.

I have been working on several commisson requets of the same dog. This is Tula. She was adopted from an Ibizan Hound rescue in Spain where her mother delivered her and her siblings. Her owner Sue is a very nice Lady from the UK  rescued her and is giving her a wonderful life. Sue asked me to do several colored pencil drawings and these are the first two.

I had the pleasure to meet this young borzoi girl at a sighthound event here in Hanover.

The event was the Mason Dixon Ibizan Hound Club Lure Couraing Trials for all sighthounds.

It was very warm that day but this girl seemed like she was happy to be there so from the photos I took of her, I drew this colored pencil drawing. Sighthounds are beautiful and graceful and I enjoyed creating this.
