Two Portraits Finished and a WIP

Here's Sassy's portrait finished.  It was delivered a few weeks ago and Sassy's mom and dad were happy.  I got to meet this beautiful kitty, on this rug also!  She is a sweetheart!  8x10 colored pencil on panel

Here is a portrait of Bungy.  Bungy has also been delivered, but he was to be a present to the owner. The client was quite pleased and I am still waiting to hear how this present was received. 5x7 colored pencil on panel

My home town, Coshocton, Ohio, is celebrating it's bicentenial. 
There are many events happening in relation to this.  One event is a juried exhibit at the Humrick-Johnson Museum, deadline September 1.  The exhibit is titled "Inspired by Coshocton" and is open to artists with a connection by work or residence to Coshocton.  The subject matter is open.  I have taken lots of photos when visiting my mom in trying to come up with a composition or two to enter.  In the end I have been working on  a family snapshot.  I have been working on this all month.  Here is my first WIP photo,  I will show more WIP photos this week.  It is 16x20 and I am thinking about calling it "The Way We Were, Coshocton, 1971" 

Hope you are enjoying your week!  Thanks for stopping by!

Finished Dog Portrait and a Cat Portrait in Progress

Here is a second portrait of Allie completed.  It will be delivered some time this week.  I enjoyed working on at at the Graniville Art Affair held a couple of weeks ago.  It is a 912 in colored pencil.

Below are  some work in progress shots of Sassy, a really gorgeous cat.  The proud owners (or ownees, whichever the case maybe)  commissioned this piece at the the Granville Art Affair.  I started it yesterday and got this far.  I am looking forward to working on her today.  The size of this portrait is 8x10 inches.

Christmas Commissions

I am currently working on some Christmas commissions.  Here is one of them in progress.

I have a little ways to go yet.  It is 8x10, colored pencil on pastelbord.  I am enjoying working on it.

I also have a cat to do for the same family.
