A pet portrait commission of the client's mother's dog, and was given as a Christmas gift this year!
This portrait was a bit more difficult than some others, as the reference photos were a bit blurry and had poor lighting. Much of the portrait was created by me to bring it to a "perfect portrait", which I am glad I have the ability to do instead of just copying straight from the photo :)
I've actually seen this dog in my Agility classes, and it was really cool seeing him in action and secretly gleeful that I was painting him for a surprise gift ;)
