These two dogs in pastels are Chihuahua Bossy and Crossbreed Sunshine. They are painted on a dark brown Sennelier pastel card in a bespoke size, which is 35 x 26 cm. It's a quite small size for two full body portraits so the dogs are very small on the paper. I created this pastel portrait in year 2010 for a client in USA , it was a Christmas gift for her friend. The client also decided to get the portrait professionally framed by my local framer, view the photos of the framed pastel portrait below.


I just love the finished product. I can not wait for my friend to see it , I know she will cherish it. You do amazing work. I can’t thank you enough for working with me and making such a beautiful portrait. The framing is just perfect!

I am the recipient of the best present I have ever received - the gorgeous / exquisite / lifelike portrait of Sunshine and Bossy. I value this above any present I have ever received. Sunshine truly was “my sunshine” in life and Suzi commissioned you to create her (and Bossy’s) portrait.
Honestly, I have been crying all day - from both sadness at my loss of Sunshine in my life and happiness in being bestowed with “my Sunshine” to live forever. After receiving it, I brought it to my friends to see (while I cried) then to my sister to see (while I cried again).
I truly cannot express how happy I am and how you and Suzi have given me a gift that I will cherish forever.
