Digital drawing - Walking his dog

I drew this illustration a few days back on a sunny day as a watched a neighbour walking with his dog in the field behind our house. We've got snow so I used a little bit of artistic license. 

I'm sure enjoying digital drawings... I find myself excited to pick up my tablet, just for the pure enjoyment of creating.

I have painted many different pets and animals - perfect gift - for the animal lover

Hi Laurel,  You painted a portrait of our golden retriever from a photograph that one of our family members submitted to you (unbeknownst to us) about 4 years ago (the picture is the first one in the pet category on your blog).  The painting was given to us after the untimely death of our beloved pet.  Your painting is a perfect replica of the picture provided to you and your talent remains truly unsurpassed.  You captured the true, good hearted nature of our dog with such detail I would have thought the dog had belonged to you!  

I will continue to refer my friends and coworkers to your blog and wish you all the best with your business!  It’s nice to finally have an opportunity to contact you and express my appreciation in your work!"  - Sherry S.
