back in december (2023), some of my friends had to say goodbye to their cat "milo" so i did this little painting for them in memoriam. Obviously a painting isn't really enough for such a loss, but it was the best i could do (hopefully it helped a little).
Here’s the result of me practicing drawing pet portraits again! I honestly love doing these, so I’m planning on opening commissions for these on my Kofi! Reference image is from Pinterest
Meet Rusty, the adorable dachshund pup with a heart of gold and a spirit as fiery as his auburn coat. In this charming oil painting, Rusty sits poised and proud, his soulful eyes gazing out from the canvas as if searching for his next grand adventure. The artist has masterfully captured Rusty's unique dachshund features - his long snout, floppy ears, and distinctive coloring that transitions from a rich chocolate brown to a vibrant tawny orange. With brushstrokes both delicate and bold, the painting evokes a sense of Rusty's lively, curious nature against an abstract backdrop of cool blues and earthy rust tones. This endearing portrait is a testament to the joy and companionship our canine friends bring to our lives, forever immortalized in a timeless work of art.
