Description
A portrait presents a man in a wide-brimmed hat holding two young kelpie dogs outdoors. Greenery, pale tree trunks, and a sunlit path form a gentle natural setting behind him. Rich blue jeans and a deep green shirt add contrast to the soft pinks and earthy tones throughout the scene. This warm, characterful artwork would bring a personal touch to a living room, entryway, or studio. The reference inspired fond memories for me of rural life working with sheep dogs in mid west NSW. It begged to be recorded in soft pastels.
