I rarely accept commissions because it stifles my art flow!! Seriously-- I won't do anything else until I get it done and I procrastinate like crazy. So I really have to be in the mood to paint a dog to accept a commission! Fussy, eh??
I've analyzed why this is so and I have come to this conclusion: It's just not creative enough for me. It's all very technical. Here is a picture; now go paint it -- I want it to look just like my pet. Not much room for fun interpretation at all. But I do enjoy the end result and making someone happy. :)
Anyway, here is one that I did recently. It's 16"x20" in acrylic. "Dempsey" is an Australian Shepherd.
I have one more commission that I've accepted, a Boston Terrier on a large canvas. I had the flu last week and it's just sitting there waiting for me to get busy with it!! I'll post it as soon as I get around to finishing it. LOL
