What's New - Portrait of the Month

JULY 2009

"BERRY" Portrait Prize

Winner of the Spaniel Section at

THE MOY GAME FAIR .

I was invited to be one of the "Artists in Action " at the 2007 Scone Game Fair where my work was on show in the Game Conservancy Stand. I am, once again, doing a portrait for them of the winning gundog . I am also, as usual, presenting a portrait prize for the ever popular Moy Game Fair 2009 gundog section

 

 

Just Checking!

Shimi - looking more grown up!!

Found in a box with 2 other kittens by the River Beauly, hence his name, after the Late Lord Lovat. He's fast turning into a monster!!...and such fun, we think that he's probably half Burmese... doubtless the result of an illicit liaison ...Catflaps obviously have their uses!!

"Percy"

Before I decided to get a cocker spaniel someone told me that they consider themselves to be people - how right they were!!

The Old Trout

This is a new design this year and has proved to be one of my top sellers - I suspect it rings a few bells!!!

Just Let Him Through

Another new design that is hitting the spot - so as to speak!

Sculpture Workshops

This horse was produced by a pupil in a 2 day workshop - she had never sculpted in her life before! This is by no means atypical of the type of results that we achieve ... so why not come along and have some fun!

 

 

 

 

 

I decided to include this extra page in order to allow people to see what I am up to - as I am both lecturing and producing new commissions all the time. I also thought it might be fun for my clients to see their own portraits on the Web........never mind their owners!!
