Maizy - Border Collie

I have just completed this portrait of Maizy.  Her owner had the winning bid in a fund raising auction held by Phoenix Dog Rescue. The item was for a portrait of the winners pet. I got some lovely ref photos of Maizy and it was a pleasure to produce this picture.

Size: 10" x 8"
Medium Pastels: Ashby sticks and Derwent and Faber Castell Pitt pastel pencils.
Support: Fisher 400 sanded paper.
