Chocolate Labrador Portrait in Graphite Pencil

After consideration from the client, it was decided that the grass was to be left out. I retouched the eyes slightly, adjusting the pupils and the reflection slightly. I just love her intense gaze and her alert expression.

    This drawing is lovely, very impressive I have never thought of doing the dogs eyes in their natural colour and the fur in pencil something I may have to try. Keep up the good work :)
