A watercolour painting of my mum and dad's German Shepherd called Penny. Right from a puppy, just a few weeks old she always had one ear up and the other down.
I took many photos of her for reference and in almost all she has her characteristic mischevious look and her tongue hanging out.
I really enjoyed painting her using artist's watercolours on a heavy weight white watercolour paper. The painting is 12" x 16" framed in an antique silver frame and looks great hanging on my mum's living room wall.
Penny also featured as part of an exhibition of my pet portraits and other paintings at the local heritage centre. A superb venue with a large upstairs art gallery featuring the work of local artists and a separate gallery room that can be hired by individual artists to display their work.
