Pet Portrait Commission in mixed media

14x18
Mixed colored pencil/pastel
I did not post this commission before Christmas for the fear of ruining my customers surprise. I used a different technique on this because of time constraints. I used Mi-teints sanded paper and applied the background with a soft pastel then the cats and dog were done in colored pencil. The colars are a little off on this photo but the customer was happy with the end results.

Thank you, Pat. It was difficult because I worked from different old photos because they are all deceased and had to put them together.
