Dog Portrait in Oil

Here's a portrait of a very happy dog called Sally. It's 8"x10" oil on canvas and was ordered as a gift for someone in Australia.


Horse Portrait in Oil

This is a portrait of a very pretty horse called Iris. It's 18"x24" Oil on Canvas. I enjoyed painting this one, as I had a large, clear reference photo to work from and it was fun to work on a larger scale.

 
 Below is a detail of the portrait and the reference photo

Cat Portraits

Here's a couple of cat paintings which I completed in July/August.

The painting below was on display at Royal Cornwall Hospital.

Catsby, 8"x10" Oil on Canvas.

 
I completed the next painting for the St Ives September Festival Postcard Art Exhibition Event. Artists throughout Cornwall donated a piece of artwork with each artwork being sold for charity. It was a great success.

It's been 3 months since my last blog post!!

I've been busy drawing and painting portraits and attending a couple of craft fairs. I usually update my 'Emma Richardson Portraiture' Facebook page regularly, so you can catch up with the latest news there.

I'll add my recent portraits in the next few posts.....
