Fine Pet Portraits - an artist's blog

My name is Sandra Palme, I am a professional pet portrait artist based in the UK. I draw your dog, cat horse or any other pet in pastels, charcoal, coloured pencils or graphite. It is my goal to capture the pet's personality and essence as well as their looks. I know how much your pet means to you as I feel the same about mine!

Basset Hound on velour paper finished!

I've come to a conclusion regarding velour paper.... YES! I LIKE IT! :o) The bright/rich pastel colours come out so well and the texture of the paper adds to the realistic/3-d effect. I will definitely use velour paper again...in fact, I can hardly wait to have another go! :o)
