A beautiful way to commemorate your faithful companion

Farley
Farley is my sister's Jack Russell terrier. She actually has cataracts, but I chose to draw her with perfect vision. The photo had a too-bright flash, the angles are harsh.
I took up drawing and sketching again when my kids started college...I guess my creative energy had to go somewhere!
I sketch whatever comes to me, but my favorite subject are dogs, especially those that have passed on and have been truly loved. When I lost my wonderful doggie friend of 15 years, I sought some way to commemorate her. Funny enough, I haven't been able to do justice to her image, but don't have any problem drawing other dogs.
I use colored pencils as my medium. I like the control, the depth attained by the layers and there is minimal mess!
I hope you enjoy your time here. If you'd like to discuss commemorating your own best friend, send me an email and let's get started!
