Please meet the beautiful Mimi. I was so excited to be asked to paint this lovely girl. Her lovely owners said she was often described as indomitable, beautiful, feisty, gentle natured and regal! They adopted her from a friend of a friend at 6 yrs and she passed away at 13yrs. Have a look at the tag! So funny, “got Biscuits” that was so her! I felt constantly watched by her as the painting went along, Colleen told me she was probably saying "You better paint me pretty and not make my bum look big"!! lol!! I have put Colleens words here when they unwrapped her portrait as they made my teary!
"We have just unwrapped Mimi...... and wow!!! She's beautiful. Your work is amazing Helen. We feel you have really captured her soul and we are thrilled. We have been crying our eyes out! Mimi is home"!
Says it all, tells you why I love painting so much, So humbled to be trusted with something so very special. Thank you Colleen and Hideki xxx
A very small beginning of something really quite big! Omg miles to go! This will b slow progress as I am doing this at night after commission work, if I'm not to tired! With wine in hand of course 😂

Wolfie Wednesday. Loving him! He has a spiritual feeling about him, I don't mean religious, more like a aura of being at peace, of being as one with everything around him, a quiet strength, I cant quite define it. Its much more powerful in person. I have needed him this week, he has been a calming influence in a week of turbulence, something to do with my doggie, that I will share when I can speak. I love the light and colours in this, it has taken on a life of its own. I hope you can all take something from him as well. xx
based on amazing photo by Paul Sawford cant thank him enough.
so started doing this little pencil sketch this avo, this is the very start, its small, just for fun and to try out these new pencils, hope you like the seeing the beginning, esp enjoy the bit at the end where I hit the camera really hard! opps lol. learning!!! note to self! give the tri pod some air! lol.
So for the last couple of weeks I was part of an Instagram comp, and the winner was announced today, and this delightful young lady picked this as the print she would like! Personally I think she has excellent taste! As this is one of my favs and best sellers! its called "Silver in the Moonlight" 💞
The original is available, he is Pastel on pastel paper 50x70cm.
I have put the link to my shop in the comments, there you can see my prints and originals! Christmas! just saying! 😁
ok so I might have found a new app today!! just a little bit of fun, this is my 1st successful go! so be warned! I did a few others, bit addicted already!!! lol, what do you guys think! be kind please, newbie at this!!!! lol
soooooo loving how Wolfie is coming together! loving these colors! long way to go yet as once its all in I will go back and highlight or deepen colors etc. Letting the paper show through where ever possible to be the shadows! think of calling him "The Wolf Within" but not sure yet. Like him??
