Fluffy

This is a portrait of our Westie girl who died last year at age 15. I did this for my step-daughter who grew up with Fluffy and still misses her. 11x14 pastel on sanded paper.

Hehe, he looks like my "Fiocco" just that i never dared to portrait him :) Great job!

This is very good use of shading to create depth - well done on a white animal, they are usually such a hard subject. You've made it look effortless! Great work! :)
