Dougal the Red Fox Labrador - coloured pencil drawing

29/3/2022

0 Comments

 
I recently completed this commission of Dougal. Pet portraits are my most requested subject, and Dougal's portrait was ordered from a returning customer as a birthday gift to a family member.

The reference image

The reference image used for this drawing was a great composition, but the detail and colour, was unfortunately lacking. Extra photos of Dougal were provided, which allowed me to gather additional detail. The leash was removed from the drawing, as this added nothing to his portrait.

Drawing a Red Fox Labrador using Caran d'Ache Luminance pencils

Living in Northumberland, the Labrador is a very p​opular dog breed here and having two Labradors myself, we often encounter Red fox Labradors and their owners, which allowed me to study their natural colour as we passed. I always try to balance out the values in each portrait, which means I will correct the colour tones, especially so when the colours in the photograph are washed out or under-exposed. I also spend time researching online, collecting photos of other Red Fox Labradors which act as a guide too.

Private Commission - Dougal the Red Fox Labrador

4/3/2022

0 Comments

 
The latest commission on the easel is this stunning Red Fox Labrador called Dougal. 
​
For this 10" x 12" drawing of Dougal, I am using the lightfast coloured pencils, Caran d'Ache Luminance on Strathmore Bristol Vellum paper. 
Coloured pencil drawing of a Red fox labrador - early stages
I create my drawings using a layering process, which help to create the depth and realism that can be seen in all my work. This process starts from the lighter tones and builds up to heavy and bold applications. The realism is created at the end, when I use both light and dark tones to manipulate the layers and create the final pieces you see within the pages of my website.

Creating a drawing like this can take many hours and to ensure I stay fully focused on each piece, I work on other drawings and paintings in between sessions. The length of time it takes to create a portrait depends entirely on the complexity of the composition, but a 4 - 6 week timescale is normal, unless a specific timeframe is requested.

This is the current stage of Dougal's portrait. There is still much to do on the colouration, but you can see how soft his fur now looks from the first post above, after numerous layers have been applied. You can view Dougal's progress page HERE.

I also completed a portrait of a Red Fox Labrador last year. This is Rua, who is Dougal's sister. You can view her portrait HERE.

Latest paintings, on the coast and a rare bird visits Newbiggin!

21/5/2020

0 Comments

 
We have been very lucky here in Newbiggin by the Sea with the weather. We've had some warm, sunny days that have allowed myself and my partner John Graham, to get out on our bikes for a couple of hours and cycle along the coast. After 7 weeks of limited movement during the Covid-19 lockdown, getting back out to enjoy our beautiful Northumberland coastline again was wonderful.  Here I share some photos of that day plus photos of recent artworks in progress or completed. Finally, a bird rarity to Newbiggin! 

Newbiggin in the sun

Last week we went out for a bike ride along the coast. We cycled up to Beacon's Point, which is a popular spot for birdwatchers, being that it turns up rarities from time to time. It was a warm day and we sat on the cliff edge for a while before heading towards Lynemouth power station in the search for Flycatchers and Whinchats. We walked along the path at the side of the golf course which is covered in gorse bushes and an ideal place for birds to nest. This was where John once photographed a Red-spotted Bluethroat. A rarity  which attracted a large group of photographers from miles around who set up their cameras on the beach and waited for hours in the hope they got a look, some did, others wasn't so lucky (me included) The latest rarity that turned up in Newbiggin can be found at the bottom of this blog.

'On the Easel' - Kingfisher in Acrylics

I have had some relaxing evenings in the studio recently. Having set my sights on completing some of my unfinished paintings which have been sitting on the shelf for a while, I got the paints back out. The Kingfisher painting is a simple composition, but this is what makes it so effective. This bird overpowers its drab surroundings so extra detail is not really needed. The wooden post was created using a mix of paint and texture gel and the raindrops added at the end helped to frame the bird perfectly. This is a 9" x 12" acrylic painting which is available for sale framed or unframed. You ca see some framed examples below.
​Get in touch for details about purchasing this painting.
The reference image used for this painting was taken by John last year. Being surrounded by open fields and small, woodland areas, there is always an abundance of wildlife. The Kingfisher momentarily posed on the wooden post early one morning, giving John enough time to capture a few images, before it departed.
Visit the dedicated page of the Kingfisher painting

'On the Easel' - Bullfinch & Apple Blossom acrylic painting

This painting was created using two reference images, the Bullfinch and the blossom. There is a cycle path close to home, which has a long row of apple blossom trees where you often see Bullfinches. Although I was able to get photos of the trees in blossom, I was not lucky enough to get a Bullfinch posing at the same time and so used one of John's Bullfinch images.
This is an 8" x 8" acrylic painting which will be available for sale upon completion, either framed or unframed. Contact me for details about purchasing this portrait.

What a find!

John was extremely lucky one morning to capture a glimpse of the stunning European Bee-Eater as it flew over a lake close to home. Although it was a long way off, there is no mistaking the Bee-Eater with its long beak and vibrant colours. Although there have been sightings of Bee-Eaters around the country, this is the first time a Bee-Eater has been seen in Newbiggin by the sea.

Latest Acrylic paintings in progress during Covid-19 lockdown

14/4/2020

Whilst in confinement, I plan to complete a 'few' pieces of art that have been hanging around the studio for a while. Over the weekend, I worked on a painting of myself with our old Labrador/Collie cross called Cindy. I am using the Ampersand Pastelbord which allows me to create smooth layers due to its texture.

Red Squirrel Traditional Heart painting

Last night, I worked on a painting depicting a Red Squirrel called Tintin. The subject lives in Denmark with his 'Paps' (you can read his remarkable story HERE). Paps, (aka Decan), has a special permit to keep Tintin. He also rehabilitates injured Red squirrels until it is safe to re-release them. 
Picture

The colouration on Tintin has been darkened which aids definition, ensuring perspectives are kept in check whilst I work up the layers and finish by evenly applying the highlights. The detail already added is quite heavy at this stage, this will be softened down as I continue so the fur looks more realistic. Sections of the bark on the tree has been built up using moulding paste to create additional effect and this will be worked on a little more as I go along.

Double Collared Sunbird - Coloured pencils on Pastelbord

1/10/2019

0 Comments

 
It's been rather quiet on the art front in the studio over the last couple of weeks, not that I haven't done any art, I was away on holiday - but before I left, I actually did something that I had never done before, I actually packed a portrait in my suitcase to work on during the evenings, which actually turned out to be a god send as we were in a caravan without any internet connection for a WHOLE WEEK!!!! Can you even begin to imagine!! 

The subject chosen was a 'double collared Sunbird' - a stunning image captured by Scotch Macaskill, a photograher living in South Africa. Having purchased a few of the new Derwent Lightfast pencils, I needed a vibrant composition to try them out, this subject was the perfect choice!
Throwing my standard pencil routine in the bin, I decided to trial out some additional products that I hadn't previously thought of using with pencils because I'm a purist and so instead of paper, I used a 3mm canvas called Pastelbord by Ampersand (usually used for my Acrylic paintings) which has a coarse surface, and my latest purchase of the 'Zest-it pencil blend'. I wasn't even sure if all these products together would work very well, but once I got started I found that they did - I was really enjoying the creative process, so much so that I decided to take it down to Torquay with me. 
Picture
The 3rd night away, I set up my little studio in the small bedroom, plugging in the desk lamp I'd brought with me and the 4way adapter fell onto the floor, the switch bulbs all lighting up like a christmas tree which then knocked out ALL the electrics in the caravan!!! I was sat in darkness and heard my Dad, where seconds earlier he'd been watching the footy with my brother, shouting out "What's goo'in off!??"  We had to call the security guard out who knew nothing about electrics and had to phone a professional up for advice before grabbing a butter knife out the drawer to remove the screws on the electric box outside the caravan and finally flick the electric back on..Hoorahh!! I still managed to get some art done though, being extra careful not to let the adapter fall off the table again, you can see in the image above that there was little space to work - the rest of the evening went without a hiccup thankfully.

​Now I'm back in the studio, I am currently working on the Autumn newsletter for my www.stepbystepart.co.uk website and so time is limited for a while, however I had a spare frame that I thought I would store the portrait in until I get the chance to finish up which hopefully won't be too long.

Latest pet portrait commission - Kira the Rottweiler

6/9/2019

0 Comments

 
I have just finished this beautiful pet portrait of a Rottweiler called Kira. The reference photo was quite small and much of the detail was missing in the black fur however I spent some time searching online for suitable photos of the dog breed and was able to create a highly detailed 12" x 16" coloured pencil portrait, with the above image showing the final result. Kira arrived home today and is being gifted to the commissionee's husband for his birthday later in the month. I hope Kira's portrait is enjoyed for many years to come by them both. ​

Christmas Commissions 2018

26/12/2018

0 Comments

 
Last year I had 4 portraits that were booked as Christmas Commissions as well as 3 that weren't but that needed to be delivered before Christmas to avoid the postal build up and last year was pretty hectic. All bar one (the Chow Chow dog) were small portraits but this year however I had 3 larger portraits booked in which allowed a much steadier pace. One was not booked as a Christmas Commission and so delayed until the New Year to avoid getting damaged in the overseas post to the USA, and so here are the 2 completed Commissions that I hope were received well by their recipients this Christmas day.

Jetson - The 9 month old Newfoundland Dog
in Coloured pencils

Images of Jetson was Emailed to me by the Commissionee, having been taken by the husband of the recipient. Black dogs are very difficult to photograph as it requires the correct amount of lighting to capture good photos that differentiate between highlights & shadow, and so I worked from a few photos to create a portrait of balanced tones. The importance of working with high quality Coloured pencils allowed me to apply the highlights over the darker base tones and achieve the correct perspectives which can easily get lost in a portrait like this. Click the image to see Jetsons progress page.

George Darling
​1940's Black Watch soldier
in Coloured pencils

I was contacted in November with a challenging request. A gent sent me an old sepia photograph depicting his girlfriends Grandad when he was in the Black Watch regiment back in the 1940's and asked if I could create a coloured portrait of it within a suitable background to give as a Christmas gift to his girlfriend after recently losing him. Having been provided with as much information as possible regarding the correct colours of the uniform and an extensive search online, I was quite excited to get started! Click the image to see how the portrait came together.

Our doggies unwrap their pressi's...Hope your furry, feathery & scaly babies were spoilt this Xmas!

25/12/2018

0 Comments

 
After recently losing our Springer Spaniel, Christmas will be a quiet in the Berisford/Graham household but our 3 Labradors were happy to open their present from Mum, literally! I took 3 old gift bags and put sellotape over the top so they had to work out how to get their smelly bone inside. I thought I'd share some photos of the unwrapping.....

Storm - Happy with the world!

Our Storm is about 8½ and an extremely affectionate dog. He loves toys particularly furry ones having dragged our Springer round the garden in the past because he had fur around the neck of his winter coat, so when I gave him this gift bag with a bone in the bottom, he was simply happy with the gift bag and carried it round the garden for a bit before laying on his back for a tummy tickle.
When I attempted to take his gift bag off him, he then thought we were playing a game of tug before the bag began to give way, at that moment he shredded the bag into pieces enjoying every moment and then grabbed the bone. He was off leaving me to pick his mess up!

Haze - The greedy dog

Haze is 7 in January and an absolute gannet! He knew there was food in the bottom of his gift bag and was desperate to get to it ignoring my calls of 'Sit' for the camera. He wasn't interested in playing with a gift bag that he had never seen before, just getting to the yummy bone inside.
He ripped off as much as he needed to before sticking his nose in and grabbing the bone. As there was minimal damage next to the other 2 dogs efforts, I might be able to use the bag for someones pressi next year! 

Switch aka Titch - A bit confused...

Titch is about 12 now and his eyesight isn't as good as it was. Having never seen a gift bag before either, he had no idea what he was supposed to do with it. Should he chew it, avoid it or wee on it? He could hear that his Mum was encouraging him to play with it so picked it up for her, attempting to give it to her as Mum usually asks him to do that for a treat.
After more coaxing he gently put his head in the bag...was he going to get the bone? No, he was somewhat confused that now the big gift bag was stuck on his head and took it a walk round the garden banging into the dustbin before Mum took it off him and gave him his bone. 

I hope you have spoilt your babies this Christmas and have lots of fun photos of them too! 

Wishing you all a Happy Christmas and all the best for 2019!

Busy few months with Commissions

22/1/2018

0 Comments

 
Christmas orders began coming in by September last year (2017) and I had little time to spend on anything else. I worked around 10 - 12 hours a day from mid October onwards and had to create a finely tuned schedule list for each day to ensure every portrait was completed for a specific date because there were a few overseas orders, some framed too and I had to ensure frames were received in plenty of time knowing framers tend to be extremely busy in the run up to Christmas too. I was hoping to have finished all my orders a week before I was due to travel to my old home town of Chesterfield so I could relax a bit but I was literally working late into the night before my journey the next morning! 
Luckily everything worked out well in the end and my final portrait Star the Chow Chow, was literally collected by the Commissionee at the train station when I arrived in Chesterfield, he had travelled the 6 hours with me on bus, coach and then train in my suitcase! I received a lovely bunch of flowers from the lady for his painting and was pleased to see some lovely comments from recipients throughout Christmas day upon seeing the portrait of their much loved Pets. Click on any of the images to visit the progress pages.

Now all the Christmas Commissions are all complete and I've had a couple of weeks off to recharge, I am back in the studio working on new articles and 2018 Art Workshops for my Step by Step Art website, there's always so much to do behind the scenes. If you are looking to book your own bespoke Commission with me or are an Artist interested in articles, mini tutorials and possibly taking in a 1 Day Art Workshop with me, click on either of the links below to visit the page/website.

Here's hoping 2018 is a wonderful year for you!
