Chiquita - Long Haired Alsatian Puppy

Chiquita is a beautiful long haired Alsatian puppy, her owner Cynthia Macrae has commissioned me in the past to depict her beautiful Lusitano horse, and upon picking up Chiquita she was determined to document her life with my artwork.

I was lucky enough to meet Chiquita and we had a little photo shoot to capture some fabulous photos of her for me to work from. She was so young when I met her, she resembled a little teddy bear and there was this wonderful moment where she was constantly tilting her head listening to us chat about how gorgeous she was. That was the moment I had to capture! with her little fluffy floppy ears and bright twinkling eyes; adorable just does not seem to cover how sumptuous a puppy she was.

She was a pleasure to depict for her loving owner Cynthea, who lives and breaths for her animals. Her animals literally want for nothing, their individual characters are celebrated and adored and they bring such happiness to Cynthea its wonderful just to chat away about all their antics together. 

Chiquita is growing into a beautiful adult now and once she has grown into herself we shall be documenting her young adult self in in a series of pieces. 

The option to create series celebrating the different stages of my clients pets and horses life are becoming so popular now within my studio, its incredible to see their characters develop and transform from young pups/ foals/ kittens into elegant and power adults. Its amazing to document their growth in this way, to totally indulge and celebrate in their lives.

I look forward to seeing this beautiful dog mature and evolve into the beautiful healthy strong dog she was born to be.

I really enjoyed creating this bespoke piece of artwork, to capture such a cute and adorable young creature for someone so lovely is a joy. I loved creating Chiquita’s expression and her wonderfully fluffy and unique texture of her fabulous coat.

 

"Katie I can’t tell you how ENCHANTED I am by Chiquita’s portrait, it’s just a delight! You really are a very talented young lady, I can not stop looking at it, I’m thrilled. thrilled, thrilled with it thank you!"
