Sue Dixon is an artist and former owner of Glitz, the Gallery of Fine Art and Chocolate in Bremerton, WA. Sue has owned and loved dogs her entire life. She understands that every dog expresses a unique personality. She portrays those expressions in her oil paintings.

My client sent me a photo of her husband's hunting dog sitting in their backyard with a fence behind him. I 'moved' the dog from that scene into a classic hunting scene at the client's request. The dog is her husband's hunting companion, and this outdoor scene suited him perfectly. The dog was drawn in graphite pencil, the background was done in pastel chalks, and the grasses were done in pastel chalks and Lyra colored pencils. My client was completely thrilled, which of course was my goal!
