Remembering Oliver Giboo


This is a commission painting I just finished.
I was instantly taken by this little Italian Greyhound, who was so loved by his family. I had to share him with you.

My friend has an Italian Greyhound named Mateo. They call her Tay for short. She loves me! (All 12 pounds of her) I knew this was an Italian Greyhound as soon as I saw it. You've really captured their essence!
