'Poppy'.  Completed - 17th October 1999.  I was asked if I could youthen her coat, since this old dog was getting a few grey hairs by the time this picture was taken (evident in the reference material).

'Zara'.   Study completed on 14th September 1999.  Thankfully her owner was able to provide me with many good photographs to work from.  Incidentlly - Poppy <above> is Zara's offspring.

'Benson'.  This stunning horse was painted in February 1999 on the request of his owners.  The finished painting looks stunning on its black background. I painted this one using gouache paints on black canford paper.
