When Maggie's owner saw Maggie and Pippin's portrait, she commissioned me to paint a pastel portrait of Maggie's family. The first dog is Maggie's Dad and the little one is Maggie's Mom. The rest of them are family as well except for the older one in the middle who was found abused so the breeder took him in and took care of him until he died. The reference picture was taken by the breeder as they all looked through the back window of the car. I know I've been painting animals lately but I "really" needed to paint this one. Don't you just want to smile when you look at this happy family?
