CANINE CLOSE UPS
56 Beautiful Purebred Dog Portraits

“CANINE CLOSE UPS” is a series that strives to recapture that one perfect true-to-life pet portrait. Perhaps a studio look, perhaps outside in daylight, always emphasising the sweetness and love we see in their eyes.

A previous relationship with a particular dog breed or similar looking dog, is what takes these mementos to the next level of enjoyment. Surely the viewer who has fond memories of their pet and views their likeness, will resonate with the image deeply.

Showing the viewer the finer details of a dog’s eyes and expressions, each dog breed is distinct and clearly defined. The playful, caring essence of each canine is rendered in my portraits with the close-up style allowing an intimate connection as well.

Each portrait stands on its own as a lovely piece of artwork, with expert lighting, color, and composition. A piece to be enjoyed by all who see it and a great addition to any decor.

Images with blue titles will link you to more images of that breed. A portrait with a white title means there is no single page exhibit for that breed yet. Another portrait of these 56 purebred dogs can be found at our ALL AMERICAN DOGS exhibit.
