This portrait of Brutus the English Mastiff is on a 5" x 5"
watercolor Art Board with ink, watercolor and color pencil. I really like these Art Boards for mixed media works. They're archival hardwood panels with cold press watercolor paper on the front. These portraits don't need to be framed: there's a keyhole back for hanging, I color the sides with color pencil to match the front and I finish them off with Krylon UV-resistant spray.

When my client first contacted me a couple of years ago, it was for a
"Paintings with Petzazz" style portrait of Brutus. The color scheme of the new portrait is a bit skewed from reality, but not as much as the Petzazz one.
She has two other dogs, Jinx (Doberman) and Eazy (Belgian Malinois) and commissioned these ArtBoard portraits of each dog. I've already finished
Jinx, but still have Eazy's portrait left to do.
I work in a variety of mediums for pet portraits - scratchboard, watercolor on Yupo, pencil and mixed media. Find out more and see plenty of samples at
