Comment from Nancy Montana
Big eyes and a sadish expression accent the facial features of this cute little dog. The portrait looks very much like a dog should look. In simple terms it is very realistic. Thank you for sharing.

Oh my goodness! This is a cuteness overload! I absolutely love your creation of this black pug! Pugs are one of my favorite breeds, they are certainly special little dogs with huge personalities! You brought no this little cutie to life with your creation of his eyes! Nice wrinkled face, very well created , well shaped with perfect proportions! Nice warm toned background showcases him well! Best to you in the contest! I love him!

Look at that face. This looks like a winner to me. He is so sad looking, he looks like he needs a hug. Nicely done pastel work. Love the background and the soft vignette that helps bring attention to that cute face.

Impressive cute creation.
Aptly captured for the contest theme...
An artistic rendition. Almost Monochromatic colors. Excellent details & features. Impressive strokes & textures.
Best of luck in the contest!
Thanks for sharing...

Who could resist those expressive eyes. This breed always looks like they are going to cry if you do not pay attention to them or give them a treat. He is indeed adorably cute. Best of luck.
