Boycee. 9x12, oils on board.


This is Boycee, not brucy as I called him when I posted my Sketch of him. It is my Son`s Alsation, and he sent me a photo of him, and I couldn` resist painting this lovely dog. You can`t see his back paws because they were not in the photo, so I made out that they were buried in the snow.

  1. What a lovely animal and you did a very nice job on the painting! He looks very "regal" posing there!

  2. Hi Vic,

    I am so sorry that I haven't commented sooner. You have certainly done Boycee proud. He is a magnificent animal. My son has a shilo shepherd that I will be painting along with my grand-daughter. But this is a wonderful portrait. Have a wonderful week .

  3. Hi Vic,

    What a beautiful dog! I can see why you couldn't resist painting him. It seems you have captured his "regalness". Just wonderful Vic. I really enjoy your animal paintings.

  4. Thank you very much Samantha. Yes he does look regal doesn`t he? I wished it was a better photo though so that I could have captured his paws. All the best Samantha.

  5. Hi Joan.
    Thanks for your Comment on Boycee. It`s a nice name,and it belonged to a character in a comedy programme on the T/V. I think he is about Nine Months old now. All the best my friend.

  8. Thank you very much Ralph for your visit and comment. I have visited yours, and think that you are a fine Artist, and an unusual one. It seems you have your own style that one can recognise as yours. Thanks again Ralph and all the best.
    Vic.
