Charles

12×16 acrylic on canvas

Personal Work – Style Exploration

A more expressive, color-forward portrait created as a personal study.

Charles is an emotional portrait of my beloved golden retriever, created not to document her physical likeness alone, but to capture the depth of presence and feeling she brought into my life. Rendered in bold, expressive color and gestural brushwork, the painting reflects the warmth, steadiness, and quiet devotion that defined her.
