Giclee print of a beautiful pencil drawing of the ever loyal Chow Chow
I approached the drawing of this Chow Chow with rather more than just trepidation! Where to begin? How to divide it up into manageable sections? It contains virtually no hard edges at all.
Eventually I began with the right eye and worked outwards and, once I'd got a feel for the hair texture, it went surprisingly well.
The drawing took approximately 110 hours to complete.
Fantastic detail in this brand new and official print, which has never been put on a wall.
Every hair on the dog seems to have been drawn
About the artist Mike Sibley
After leaving Leeds College of Art in 1970 he met his wife Jenny who bred and exhibited horses and animals. It was this that turned his talents in that direction. A professional artist now for over twenty years, he often spends over two hundred hours on a single drawing. Mike's work is special in its fine detail. The only tool for this is the pencil. He doesn't like colour, he says colour gets in the way. Mike's art sells in many countries including America, Australia and Scandinavia. His first limited edition print, an edition of fifty Irish Water Spaniel prints, sold out at its Crufts release in just three and a half hours. He now rarely accepts private commissions - only when time permits and a four-year wait is not unusual. The work is stunning, make a point of looking out for his prints and original drawings. You will be impressed. - Peter Tamblyn-Embling - Art Critic - (Condensed and updated from Our Dogs).
