This is Winston. It is a tribute painting for a friend
to give as a gift to his owner. I don't have any
background info, other than he was dearly beloved
and terribly missed.
This blog serves as an experiment in development. I am attempting to improve my painting skills and loosen my style.

I have been having a good time catching up on your blog. I love this painting of Winston, I'm sure it's going to be treasured!! Can I tell you how great your party animals are!! Just fabulous!!!
He is wonderful! You captured the expression in his eyes and the love reflected there for whoever he is looking at. What a treasure for your friend!
You've captured him and the atmosphere of that moment that I'm sure the owners will remember spending days like this with him. Sweet memories -what a gift.
love how the cool aqua & greens compliment the warm fur! Excellent!
Lovely portrait of Winston. His sweet look over the shoulder seems to be saying, "I will wait for you" to his family. Sensitive.
What a sweet face. Gwen, you have such a beautiful way about painting ... anything!
Lovely painting and just sweet face! They will love it!!
Great painting! This is a great tribute.
What a moving painting. It's easy to see why this lovely dog would be missed.

Very nice painting Gwen
What a sweet portrait of a dearly beloved friend, I am sure his owner will love it, beautifully painted.
What a sweet face and I'm confident you captured him perfectly. Whoever thinks animal portraits are easy are either extremely skilled or hasn't done one well.
You did a beautiful job with Winston!! The fur, expression and his coloring is fantastic, Gwen!!! Beautiful eyes...
SO great! What a beautiful gift. Such a doll and expertly painted!
What a great job you did, Gwen! I like the dark band behind his head that makes the highlights on the side of his head really stand out. You got beautiful shades of color in his fur, and his sweet face. I also like the stylized background.
Winston is so cute gwen, I love the color palette!
This is marvelous!Really grabs the eye and heart and the background is lively and colorful without distraction.
