Happy 60th Birthday Dad
It's my Dad's 60th Birthday today so yesterday I painted him a card of his dog 'Grace' using a sheet of 16x12" Sanders Waterford watercolour paper, a pigment liner and Schmincke watercolours.
Funny, you don't look a thing like him! Seriously, though, that is a gorgeous painting of Grace and I'm sure he's going to be over the moon about such a loving gesture on your part.
My heart stopped when I saw this card - we had a dog that looked just like that, Henry, lived to be 15. It's a beautiful portrait of Grace, your dad will love it :)

Your card is beautiful. The dog portrait is wonderful.
There's a sweet old dog. Love those attentive eyes Anita. Happy birthday to your dad. He's a lucky man.
He is going to LOVE it...that's beautiful. Dogs are so special to us...
is Grace a spaniel? She is lovely and I am sure your dad will treasure his card :)
What a wonderful card! Everyone I know has so much stuff. A gift such as this is much more meaningful!
