I really love this painting. He looks like a gentle giant. What a kind looking dog and his eyes are so soulful. It makes me want to hug him. You did a great job on this. Thank you for sharing.

I thought I had reviewed this already last night! Maybe I was too sleepy to successfully send it!

Well, this is a meticulously painted canine subject with utmost attention to details!

Sharply focused. Fine facial features & smooth textures.
Was this panted from a reference photo?
Is his right eye really smaller than the left?

Subtle illumination.
Subdued colors.
Thanks for sharing...

What a beautiful and adorable dog. The proportions, texture, shading and colors are all done so well, especially the details in the fur and eyes. This dog looks like a great pet to have. Good luck in the contest.

I may have seen this before. I thought it was entered into the pet photo contest initially. Any I may have already reviewed this, but, here goes. Nice rendition of a St. Bernard. Nice facial features creates a wonderful expression of emotion on the face of the dog. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image

He looks a little distressed in his eyes, but it's a really fine portrait of a handsome dog. I can almost feel that wiry (wet?) fur. The colors are beautiful. A Bernese Mountain dog perhaps?

I think this is a lovely drawing, and it looks like you have captured the personality of this dog so well. I especially like the fine textures you have brought out in the fur, and the fine shine in the dog's eyes.

This is also done paying very good attention to details and with a good use of high lights. The neutral background is of course perfect.

The format and framing works well and the dog is well placed on the paper. I do however see a signature in the bottom right corner, and since this is a so called "blind" contest, this is not permitted. You should remove it and replace the entry. Just thought I should let you know, because this is a truly lovely and well done drawing. I wish you luck with the contest.
