This is absolutely beautiful, I love the expressive eyes too, they say so much. Unfortunately I can't see any of the first shots from the WIP thread due to the upgrade, but I'll be sure to check back if they ever fix these things.

Thank you for sharing.

Having been owned by a loving Basset Hound for the past 12 years I just love this one!

I love the expressions, especially the Bassett's. And how he's (She?) leaning on the spaniel.

Absolutely beautiful. The skill in painting these dogs is evident and impressive. Love the expression, the hair, all of it. Not so keen on the photographers’ studio background but that’s just a matter of taste I suppose.

Well, Dave, I thought I "knew" your paintings pretty well, but this one is spectacular. In your WIP thread, you said this is a commission; well, your client ought to be elated.

Love everything about this! The folds! The noses! Those are fantastic noses! Also like the background--simple, classy, serves the dogs well!
