M…ah well I could have asked you all to send your Mastiffs, Miniature Pinschers, or Maltese', but as we have a Manchester Terrier, and he is a right poser it seemed natural to paint him. We had a photo shoot that lasted most of an afternoon. He happily placed himself along the back of the sofa, on his back by the fire, on red alert for pigeons and just gazing into the camera, but I chose the expression that he has when anyone says the word "Squizza!" which is code for Squirrel. We have an extremely fat one that taunts him through the conservatory window several times a day, which sends him into a frenzy of barking, throwing himself at the window, and running around in frustrated circles. We sometimes very very quietly open the door and send him out to see if he can catch it but to date we have no luck!
