(Photo: Carlos posing next to his mini Pet Portrait painting.)
This little guy is named Carlos. His mom contacted me to do a surprise Pet Portrait painting for his dad, which was given last weekend as a gift for his birthday. They had a candid photo of their pup that they loved from when he was really little (about 6lbs). He’s much bigger now (about 20lbs) which you can see in the above “doppelgänger” photo, but big or small he’s just as cute!
Here is a 50/50 split of the original photo next to the painting:

This painting is ‘mini’ – measuring in at 5″x5″. To view a full finished photo of Carlos’ painting, it is viewable in my Pet Portrait portfolio gallery.
