The Artist magazine – pet portrait demo article

I am delighted to feature in the February 2021 issue of The Artist magazine (published December 2020).The article focuses on a recent pet portrait commission of a stunning dog I was asked to draw. In the piece I talk about how I manage the commission process and include a demonstration of drawing the dog’s eye — always a key feature with any pet portrait in bringing the subject to life.I really enjoyed writing this article and drawing the commission itself was a real treat. I hope you enjoy reading about it.
