Sleeping Bulldog Portrait

This guy's Mom wanted his portrait doing what he does best...and loudly! I used Prismacolor colored pencils on Mi Tientes pastel paper, 11 x 14.

Thanks for looking! Robin

Alfi, thanks! It's what I like about colored pencil, you can get great details. Whisker-width!
Thanks, Tashahope!
Makeshiftheart, the tongue was an important part of the likeness, lol, he always has it out!
Mikey, lol. They are cute dogs, aren't they?
Redryerotties, thank you!
Shastar, thanks!! If dogs were good models for photos, lol, I'd be out of business!

Thanks again and I'm sorry it took me so long to respond. I of course, again, accepted too many commissions for Christmas (which I swear I'll never do again) and since this guy have done portraits of 2 Brittany spaniels, a black lab and now am working on my last one, a yorkie. Then I have 2 human children for next week. Whew!!! I'll share them with you when I get a chance.

Merry Christmas to all if I don't get a chance to come back. And may Puppy Claus be extra nice to your little loved ones.
