Comment from Linda Bickston
"Eye" think you have captured the look of devotion and loyalty in this eye. The brush strokes are great for the fur surrounding it. Wonderful art.

Super macro! Wonderful detail, great brushwork ... of course the eye is the most important reflection of the individual personality. I'd love to see more of your pet artwork. Good luck.

An absolutely fantastic detailed study of your border collie's eye.
So very real and extremely well rendered.
Good luck in the contest, a sure winner I feel!

This is a most effective painting of a dog's eye. The amber iris with the dark depths of the pupil are contrasted well by the surrounding fur. My old doggies both died at the beginning of this year and this reminds me of their eyes.

LOL - this must have been a real spark in your minds eye to get this photo when you did.

You can almost see into the dogs soul.
