Trooper


This is my latest commission..."Trooper", he is a pastel on Wallis paper.  Trooper's portrait was a surprise birthday gift from a very thoughtful husband and the present was a huge success.  Portraits of our beloved pets really are the gift that keeps on giving!  If you think you might be interested in giving such a gift or even the recipient of one, you can visit my website at  www.judebatesart.com or learn about my process at judebates.blogspot.com  As always, thank you for looking and allowing me to share my work with you...

Yours in paint,
 Jude Bates
