I didn&#39;t intend on such a realistic depiction (I was planning on leaving more mystery to the background and bodies) but such is the reality of commissioned portraits. I tend to show more detail than I would for a gallery piece or exhibition. What I really enjoyed about this commission was the design challenge of putting it all together.Peggi Habetshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15413009629786638585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036366018554928919.post-75058372713317848192009-06-30T10:22:16.608-07:002009-06-30T10:22:16.608-07:00These paintings are beautifully done.

They are astoundingly good and life like. I&#39;ve done pets in pastel and in graphatint pencil but never watercolour. ..and I certainly wont even attempt it now after seeing this amazing work of subtle colours and nuances in the fur.Joan Sandford-Cookhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04228835690449964257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036366018554928919.post-48664148829721474722009-06-29T21:00:47.217-07:002009-06-29T21:00:47.217-07:00Wonderful, Peggi, really something!Karinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09734872244414275341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036366018554928919.post-9838351830501340892009-06-29T09:21:36.622-07:002009-06-29T09:21:36.622-07:00Really nice work, Peggi.

You&#39;ve managed *shaking my head in wonder, to tie them all together in shapes, values and design. Absolutely stunning. Make sure and ask the owners if you might barrow it to enter in some huge competition ... sure to bring a first prize.Nancy Van Blaricomhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17030893675129815727noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036366018554928919.post-86667975380663194502009-06-26T09:12:36.598-07:002009-06-26T09:12:36.598-07:00wow I thought they were photos to until I zoomed in and then realized they were better :) Love the rich darks and how you bounce your lights around, just beautiful!Costescuhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05088222428149604532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1036366018554928919.post-81545439208099406382009-06-26T03:51:31.732-07:002009-06-26T03:51:31.732-07:00Hi Peggi,<br />I&#39;m speechless!
