Wookie and Wesley

A portrait of 2 hairy dogs

 This is mostly finished now, though I'll stil keep touching up the highlights and keep adding more hair

Wesley and Wookie
 
Julie and Jon are animal lovers and they've aways had a pair of dogs over the years(as well as a menagerie of cats and ferrets etc) so I've painted their portraits from  time to time, when one gets old and dies and a new dog is welcomed to replace them. Tommy had passed away not long ago, and I'd been waiting for Wesley (at left)to grow up a bit before painting him with Wookie
 

 But then she grew ill and was diagnosed with a cancer, then died not long after. This is her a bit younger and healthier


With the mat blue...


 There's a few other paintings of these dogs in some  posts below,
