I love German Shepherds! My Mum and Dad bred and showed them for years. They are a beautiful, intelligent and noble breed. The recipients will be absolutely thrilled, Anita! Beautiful work ~ :)

One very happy client, I bet! There is something so touching in his expression. Brava, Anita.
Utterly fabulous Anita. GS are my favourite dogs....such loving loyal animals. You've really caught the tender intelligent expression in his/her eyes and the noble stance of his/her head. Gorgeous.

Yowza! He's beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing your process.
Your painting is stunning anita! You've captured such a beautiful pride, but also a gentleness, which is typical of them..I grew up with one of them. They are beautiful dogs, in appearance and pride and behaviour...when they are trained, like all dogs, of course! you can feel proud of this painting.
