You capture that "border collie eye" so well! Wonderful. And with pastels!
Pasterls are the bane of my existance. I love them, but it is an unrequited love.

He was lovely.

That's really great, I have tried to draw/sketch a couple of border collies, but I have neither the patience nor the talent.

Thanks so much - I guess the background colour often, but funnily enough I have asked my husband for his idea on this one and 'Butter Wouldn't Melt' so I am beginning to think he has an artistic eye!

I guess your husband definitely has an artistic eye indeed. The background colour fits really well!

What a gorgeous looking dog. Your pastel work is amazing and I think your choice of colour in the background really compliments the dog, but then purple is my favorite colour

I love the wild animals you have, but this is so unbelievably realistic I have to favourite it. It's really fantastic.

Thanks, I do try to capture as much detail and make it look as real as possible, it's time consuming, but worthwhile when I get great comments

Not only is it realistic, but it is also PURPLE! Yes, this is going in my faves....... I love the movement of the fur!

I know, bit of a girly one, but suits this dog's fur I think. I must admit he is my favourite dog that I have done so far. Thanks so much for your comments, as you are so great at painting animals yourself, it means even more.

Wow, this is awsome. I like the amouth of detail that you put into the dog. He looks super realistic, and the fuzy background makes him come out very nice.
You're so good with pastels, I'ld like to master them as wel as you do. Maybe you could give me some tips
