The Japanese Shiba Inu Series
 
A series of 5 dog portraits
 
Originally created specifically for Crufts 2012 with the intention of raising money for Shiba Rescue.
There are four recognised colours within this breed of dog, Red, Black & Tan, Sesame and White.
I have so far done three of the colours plus an extra 'Red' as this one I donated to the Shiba Rescue to raffle off and raise as much money as possible.
I still have the White to do which will be a personal commissioned piece and not available to buy in print form at this time but keep checking back for progress on the last portrait in this series.
