Hi Colleen, Your sketches make that page seem 3-dimensional. This one is my favorite so far because of the Cute Chloe and your technical treatment of all the little wrinkles …and her eyes. Nice work!–Rachel
Hi Colleen. I found you because you subscribed to my blog. Thank you.
I love this sketch. My little dog is a Tibetan Spaniel and is about the size of Chloe’s head.
wow. Thats amazing! Thanks for suscribe to my blog! if you have something that you feel i write too little about or anything that can change, write to me and let me know! Thank you and again really nice job on thins painting!
Hi Colleen,
We have a female bulldog named Bessie. She’s about eight years old. We rescued her. I think she looks a lot like Chloe. We had a male bulldog named Bagel who lived to be 15 years old. Bulldogs are something else. Bessie doesn’t like to get much exercise. It’s often an effort to get her to walk around the block, but she’s very loving. She feels like the reincarnated spirit of Bagel. We waited five years after Bagel died before adopting Bessie. She was about five or six when we adopted her. Anything’s possible, I suppose.
What a precious pet portrait! I love it! You have really captured the dog’s essence and personality. Outstanding job detailing his fur….that can be difficult. Thanks for subscribing to my blog.
Thank you very much for your compliment. I would love my work in a book one day. Also, thank you for shining the light on Shaun Tan’s work. I book marked his website so I can reference it later. I can draw realistically, but I can’t doodle like he can. Its a real talent. See you around wordpress 🙂
I love this dog! Have seen some of the rest of your work and I’m very impressed. How long have you been drawing? You’re a very talented artist. Keep posting these beautiful drawings 🙂
Hey thanks, I have been drawing for about 13 years.. give or take. I did stop drawing for about 9 of those years in between. I wish i hadn’t, but we can’t go backwards ( as my mother always tells me 🙂 ) so I just work with what I have now and keep going. I have already started my next project, hopefully it will be up soon 🙂
Thanks!! I really appreciate it! I am glad it made you feel something, and it was a GOOD feeling. Thank you for taking the time to let me know how my art has entered your life 🙂

This is amazing, Colleen! That is some look Chloe has on her face and you captured it perfectly!!! Thanks for subscribing to my blog, too!
Hi Colleen
I love this picture – I, too, thought it was a photograph. You are one talented girl!
I’m glad you subscribed to my blog – otherwise, I wouldn’t have had the pleasure of seeing what you do.
Have a wonderful day.
Beautiful, amazing art!

Hi Colleen,
Thanks for subscribing to my blog. Did the same to yours. 🙂
This pictures spoke to me.
Magnificent, meticulous detail!
How long did it take to create?
Amazing work!
I’ve seen that look before, but it wasn’t from a dog…lol
Excellent work…very lifelike

Wonderful job! Love it! : )
Bulldogs have such character, don’t they?
This is incredible. I had to spend a few minutes convincing myself that this wasn’t just a desaturated photograph. Again, excellent work.
You have captured the “Bulldogness” of a Bulldog! The bulldog in your sketch has aliveness and animation. It conveys babylike innocence.
What an adorable piece! Thanks for posting this! 😀
Whoa, you’re talented! Very impressive! You do incredible work!
Your drawings take my breath away. I have a wonderful connection with animals and you capture their essence so beautifully.
Thanks for visiting me today. Hugs, pat
Thank you for such kind words 🙂
Beyond awesome! Art at its beat in my eyes!
Thank you so much!
Oh my goodness Colleen! Do you do portraits from photos? I have some munchkins that would keep you busy.
Subscribing now!
Thanks!
Very faithful!
Thank you 🙂
Your drawings are amazing. They would be cool in a book. Have a look at some of Shaun Tan’s work. Thanks for subscribing to my blog from so far away…

I generally dislike dogs, but I really like this picture. So… maybe one day, I’ll grow up and want a picture of a dog. But not a real one. 😉
Good idea! Much less maintenance!!!!
Wow!!! I thought this was a black & white Photograph. It’s perfect!
Thanks!!!!
still amazed how awesome you can draw, you have a serious big talent 🙂
This is gorgeous, I thought it was a black and white photograph until I looked again. Truly beautiful and you can see the life in her eyes!
Thanks… I can’t believe so many people think that these are photos 🙂 I guess I really am my own worst critic!!
This is phenomenal. I thought your drawings were black and white photos. You have wonderful talent. I wish I could draw like this.
🙂 Thank you for the compliment.
You’re welcome.
Incredible art! Keep it up (:
Thanks! 🙂 I plan on it 😀
I love this drawing. It feels like Chole is getting ready to give someone a big kiss. I am very impressed and keep up the good work. 🙂
🙂 I am glad this picture seems so animated to you!
Love this one. You do a great job at bringing them to life.
thank you
Wow this is beautiful! Thought it was an actual photo
Gorgeous – I love the detail.
You’re amazing! I wish I could draw like this!
This is a fantastic drawing, it has so much personality and expressiveness. Plus, what a tremendous amount of patience to render this in carbon.
I love this sketch. I feel like the dog could walk right off the page.
so sweet…love your composition.
This is wonderful, I wanna be friends with your dog.
You are very talented. Chloe is so precious. Love your work.
I love Chloe.
He’s ADORABLE!! You are very talented!
