The commissioner was absolutely thrilled with both the composition and the likeness. It was a real pleasure to portray these three beautiful animals, which I met personally to take resource photographs and to get to know them (and their pecking order). Kebba (whom I have already portrayed in 2010 – Artist Code 1023), the chocolate lab is still the boss, even though he is getting on a bit, but Rego (standing) is ever watchful to take over top dog when the opportunity arises. Maddie, relaxing in the foreground is a small and lovely ex-gun dog, and so beautiful. Here they are all guarding their territory in their back garden.
