Today’s progress with Shiva. Lights and shadows roughly blocked and her right ear. Then I decided I needed to do one of those amazing eyes. Shiva is in the care of Cork Dog Action Welfare Group in Cork, Ireland and I’ll be painting her over the next week or so. Shiva is available for adoption- if you’re a lover of smooshy faces, drooly jowls and big loving bulldogs, check out her adoption page www.dogactionwelfaregroup.ie/shiva-the-American-bulldog/ #findahomeforshiva #art #pastelart #pastelpainting #fabercastell #pastelmat #dogart #rescuedog #artfordogs #americanbulldog #bulldog #cdawg

Shiva is on the piano so we can look at each other and decide what else she needs, besides a lower right jaw of course! I literally smile every time i walk pass. That face! Those eyes!

I am so so happy with my portrait of Shiva! She makes me smile 😃 but what makes me even happier and smilier is the news that she went to her new home at the weekend! Well done to all the hardworking people at Cork DAWG and to Chloe who fostered Shiva. Check out the DAWG adoption page on www.dogactionwelfaregroup.ie for more canine beauties in need of help. #adoptdontshop #donate #art #pastelart #pastelpainting #fabercastell #pastelmat #dogart #rescuedog #artfordogs #americanbulldog #bulldog #cdawg

Shiva’s portrait will be on display in the Café du Cours, Reillanne for all of July, and in Galérie Cent Cinq in Apt from August 5th to 11th. But if you’d like to help Cork DAWG help more dogs like Shiva by buying this portrait, get in touch. 100% of the money I receive from selling this piece will go to Cork DAWG.
