Dog Portrait of Tia in colour pencils completed

I have forced myself to do some work today, I'm so worn out by the bite to my hand that all I want to do is sleep but Tia's portrait is for a birthday present so deadlines have to be met. I will admit it took a few attempts as I had to keep putting it down as I was nearly nodding off (face down on the paper at one point I was) but I succeeded and a full version has been sent to Tia's owner of her dog portrait in full for her to have a good look at to check everything is as she would like it. This is the nerve-wracking bit now when the waiting goes on for ever, it's such a relief when you get a positive reply, only then does it seem worth it...anyway here she is, she's such a sad looking dog but Mrs Allen assures me she is a little bit of a con-artist as when she looks particularly sad she always gets an extra biscuit, just look at those eyes!!!
