Dog Paintings

Ch Blackslate’s Boston Brahmin

August 30th, 2010

This  is a 20×16 inch painting on board of the famous and handsome dog Brahmin, standing in front of the Boston Lighthouse.

 Blackslate's Boston Brahmin

This is a very special painting. It’s going to be auctioned at the American Bullmastiff Association Art Auction, in Boston, on the 24th of September. The proceeds will go to the ABA to help with the work they do with bullmastiffs. All animals charities are struggling in these difficult times, so I hope this painting will help raise much needed funds for ABA and bullmastiffs.

High Speed Gardening

August 24th, 2010

I have a new print, High Speed Gardening. This is Mabel, a young Springer Spaniel, running around the garden with half a tree in her mouth! It certainly didn’t slow her down any! She was having a wonderful time on a sunny day.

 

The original painting was an acrylic painting on canvas board and it’s sold.

High Speed Gardening

June 15th, 2010

Here is my latest painting. A Springer Spaniel running around the garden with half a tree in her mouth. It certainly didn’t slow her down any!

I wanted to get the feel of a hot, sunny day into the painting. I used lots of warm colour, even in the shadows, and some thick paint in places too.
This is a 16×12 acrylic painting on board.

Running On The Beach

May 6th, 2010

This painting is the first in a new series ‘dog in action’ paintings I hope to do over the summer.  I wanted to get the feeling of a sunny day on the beach and the sheer joy of running! I wanted a blast of colour with the light coming from behind him.

This was done on paper in acrylics. Here’s a close up detail.

Liam And Truman In The Snow

March 16th, 2010

Another bullmastiff painting, this is Liam and Truman In The Snow. I love bullmastiffs standing in the snow, there’s something about the colour of their coats against the whiter snow and the blue, lilac shadows that is so lovely to paint. These two handsome boys are father and son.

This is a 22×16 acrylic painting on stretched canvas.
