Pencil Portrait of Reilly

Here is my Pencil Portrait of Reilly. Catherine emailed in 2014 to see if I would be able to draw their beautiful Pointer Reilly as a gift for her husband to be. She wanted to give the portrait  on their wedding day. I often complete wedding portraits of clients pets, they are really lovely gifts.

Previous clients have also taken the portraits with them when they actually get married. It also means that pets can be with them in a portraits sense. Wonderful if they are unable to be at the wedding, similar to Reilly. The destination for Catherines wedding was Norway. Reilly wouldn’t be with them, so this was the perfect gift.

The portrait is a 12 x 10 inches drawing. Catherine also asked if I could add ‘The life of Reilly’ on the portrait too. Of course! You can see the final scan below along with Catherines final email.

Hi Melanie,

Kind regards
Catherine
