Some of my favourites over the last few years-

Working dogs

I was brought up with Spaniels, they're great dogs to draw.

Terriers

This is a great example of a terrier, from the Thimble Inn in Piddlehinton, Dorset.

Hi Nina

The picture of Blue is amazing you have captured everything about him. He really is the most handsome Black Labrador!

Fern, black Labrador Portrait

 

Hi Nina,

Just wanted to say thanks for the portrait that you did of Fern, my black Labrador. My boyfriend really liked it. The frame matches the new kitchen door handles really well so I think it will be proudly displayed in there when it is finished. Every time I get home from work the picture is out as he has been showing someone!!

Thanks again for your hard work.

Dog portrait composition

As a special request I took a selection of treasured photographs and developed this composition for a client.

Hello Nina

I wish I had a camera when Alan saw the picture, he is over the moon

with it! He can't believe how true to life they all are! The picture

has taken pride of place so everyone can see it when they come in.

Once again, I would like to thank you for doing such a fantastic true

to life picture that we will admire forever.

I hope to see you again at one of the shows.

Bye for now

Dear Nina,

My husband Anthony has just given me the wonderful portraits you have done of my 2 fantastic dogs, Max & Milly.You are truly amazing!  I was instantly reduced to floods of tears!  With the photo's he gave you I can't believe how you have managed to recreate there personalities.  All I can say is THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Anthony said that you would like my permission to allow a copy to be put on the web site, by all means, yes.

Once again thank you for a fantastic portrait.

Terrier portrait

I'm glad we had Bob on his favorite log pile in the garden, it'll be a great reminder when we move from this house.

Alun and Nicky

'Bones' and 'meg'- Bear Inn, Wincanton

 

Congratulations on your most impressive artwork; they are truly stunning. You have really captured Bones' placidness, and the softness of his coat are wonderfully portrayed.
 
They are displayed in the bar and admired by all. I am very pleased to see that you have included them on your web site.
 

Without hesitation we will pass your name to anyone else who may wish to commision similar studies.

Steve, Wincanton

 

You have really captured Meg's  true personality.

Spaniel portrait

Dear Nina,

I would like to thank you for the picture you did of my dog, Bobby, which I was given for my birthday. I was amazed at the likeness you captured and the quality of the picture which will be a constant record of my dog at his present age. I will be tempted to return to you later, as he gets older, as the pastel is far better than any photograph.
