Welcome to my Blog

I'm a professional award winning artist from NSW Australia.

I bring your photos to life in paintings that will touch your heart!

A photo freezes a moment while a painting touches hearts.

I paint from photographs but the portraits I create in Pastel and Oil are more than just a copy of your photo.
I will have a likeness but your portrait will be much more colourful,alive and three dimensional than the photo.

You can have me create your own special portrait.
You supply the photos and then you can plan the great unveiling!


I have original animal and landscape artworks available for sale on my website.

I've started this Blog to give you a bit more insight into the creative process behind my portraits and so I can ramble on a bit more about life in general.

Shelby

I ran a competition on my Sue Linton Artist page for a photo to use as a demo painting for this Saturdays dog show. Anne Marie won with Shelby.
 I'll post some progressive photos of her as she is created.
Here is the photo- she is going to be an 30 x 40cms Oil on gallery wrap canvas so she can be hung unframed.



Isn't she cute?
Here is the start of Shelby. I've just drawn her up very quickly with paint on the canvas.

A bit further along - I've reduced the size of her paw and corrected a few other things..I constantly correct things as I go along.I decided to have her hanging over a plank or wall in the foreground.




Here I'm at the dog show and want to give something for people to look at as quickly as I can.


Here I'm almost finished for the day.I think I might have done a little bit with her eyes but I ran out of time.
