Description
This logo was done for a lovely couple who breed and exhibit Border Collies.The image was a delight to bring to life! I made an extra effort to highlight and burn in some of the fur detail, as well as expression in the face.
We all know how I lack when it comes to backgrounds....I'm not extremely thrilled with this one either but it makes the cut
This logo is now Copyrighted. Beware.

heey I saw this artwork on their site layout. I thought to myself immediately (hmm someone on DA must have done this!) due to the style of the art. I love your work great job! : D I am looking for a BC pup in the future I had one before but he passed in 09. I want to show this time around...so that's how I came across the site.
Anyway when I get a new dog *-* I would totally love to commission you as your work is so wonderful!

nice... Even if I am not a fan of show border's I like the way you've added texture and depth to the background.

wa-wa-wait. did you say you're not thrilled about the background? you've got to be kidding b/c it's fantastic. seriously, it's absolutely beautiful and extremely well done. and the border collie itself is amazing as well. i really do love this piece. it's beautiful and there is absolutely nothing that i think could be improved. it's just perfect.

Perfect is subjective to interpretation haha, but I do appreciate your generous compliment.
Honestly, I just hate the water and rocks...those elements have always been a challenge :/

um btw, the rocks are beautiful. they're one of my favorite parts. and the water is honestly great as well. it's hella better than anything i could manage. if they were a challenge for you, it doesn't look like they were, and I don't think they're a challenge for you anymore.
this is truly lovely.

I seriously thought the background was a photo at the top part. o-o. And your shading is so ovely, and the sheep look very..puffily and real. xD I also like the slight glow around the border collie to make it the main point. c:

I can truly appreciate your eye for detail.
That is the absolute reason I put the glow, so thank you so very much for noticing

Lack when it comes to backgrounds?! I'd hate to hear what you thought about my backgrounds. The background is so good, I thought it was a photo before I did the fullview. And the BC is just excellent! Great job!

Beautiful! I love all the details in the fur, and personally I think the background works perfectly- it says more about the Border Collies, but doesn't take away from the lovely detail of the main dog
