Animal Portrait - Gir Dog, "Nightvision"

Gir Dog, "Nightvision"

Portrait, 8 1/2 x 11 in
Lead on Paper

This happens to be a great example of two different types of portraiture, photo reproduction and animal portraiture.  This is my assistant Roman's dog, Gir.  He's a Brussels Griffin, the type of dog that wookies, ewoks and mogwai are based on, and has to be the cutest thing on three legs - that's right he's missing a paw, the poor guy!  I will make sure to post the original picture as well so you can compare the two, but in the meantime if you need a copy of this one we might be able to help you get the cuddly little thing settled into a new home, he does love laps after all.
