They are beautiful. He does a great job of capturing the essence of the dog, but it's not complete realism. Gorgeous use of color. I'd go for it.

Those look really good! I think the price seems reasonable too. You might look at Everly Originals. I had them do a human painting of ours and WOW! Check it out...he's great and he does watercolor and oil! I'm thinking of having him do a pic of Sarge in the future.

Those are really neat. If you have it done, please post it. I'd love to have something like that done of my girls.

I think those are pretty cool. There isn't a lot of depth to it but it does seem to capture the dog's character. I think that price is very reasonable.

A great alternative is to choose a really good pic and have it printed on canvas and wrapped round a frame - I did this for my dad using a pic he took in yellowstone park US. The favour was returned when I received a fantastic canvas frame of Lexx standing in the Waseley hills which now takes pride of place on my living room wall.

That work looks very nice. My mother had an artist do a pencil sketch of my Cali and my first Dobe, and gave it as a birthday gift. It is one of my favorite b-day gifts of all time. I'd go for it!

The price seems ok but it just seems something is missing, I can't quite put my finger on it. I do think it would make a very nice gift. Maybe with a little research, you may find a similar artist in the U.K.

Let us know what you decide, I would like to see the finished work.

price is very good for what you are getting, but I would look around a bit more, I have seen some nicer stuff done, but not for that price.

i will continue to research..

i did find a few in the uk, but the pics looked terrible and they were double the price ??

would love to do the pic printed onto canvas like bren said but i can never got a good pic of them together and really wanted them in the same pic not 2 seperate ones ??

ill keep looking thanks
