Meet Archie :)

Posted on by Zara Toms
I have had the absolute pleasure of drawing two more gorgeous Spaniels. Last year I was asked to draw six beautiful dogs; Lily, Charlie, Harry, Millie, Oscar and George. I then got to capture them in a large acrylic painting. Well, the family then added Archie and his brother Ollie to the furbaby pack and I recently had the pleasure of drawing them to. They both look so similar and both have ver...

Varnished and almost ready to ship!

Posted on by Zara Toms
After leaving my recent Tiger painting to dry while I was away on holiday it was now ready to varnish this week :). I have to say... This is a very satisfying part of the painting process. The colours, contrast and depth once varnished really do finish off every painting. The best way to describe it would be.. If you printed a photo off on normal paper and then the same photo on photo paper t...

More Spaniels :)

Posted on by Zara Toms
When I was asked to draw these six beautiful dogs I couldn't wait to start them. Each portrait was A3 (11.7" x 16.5") in colour pencil. I was then asked to paint the same reference photographs on a large 29" x 21" canvas in acrylics. Their owner has since added two more Cocker Spaniels to her family so today I have the pleasure of drawing them to :). After that I will be planning another acry...

Back at the easel..

Posted on by Zara Toms
Yesterday was my first day back at the easel after 2 weeks off. A well needed break. I am sure everyone feels the same with all the chaos going on. I hope everyone is staying safe. I have so many adorable pet portraits on my waiting list and I cannot wait to start them. For now here is a revisit to a portrait I completed earlier in the year :) Baloo A4 (8.3" x 11.7") Pastel Portrait
