My Birthday Gift - a drawing of Charlie

At the start of the month it was my birthday and my mum presented me with the most amazing gift ever - a beautiful drawing of Charlie which can only be said to be the second best gift ever, coming second only to Charlie herself who was a birthday gift to myself 6 years ago to the day on my birthday this year

Here is the photograph which i took and loved and was going to get blown up


and here is a scan of the drawing which was all done free hand and in pencil - it came in a beautiful silver frame

Wow, that is stunning. What a fantastic picture.

Your Mum really knows how to spoil you xx

Thank you

TBH it didn't cost as much as many people think it perhaps would , a friend of hers from the cat show did it and even at full price i was shocked at how well priced they were both framed and un framed - reckon i will be having my others dogs donewhen i find a photo of them as much as i love the one above of Charlie

What a fab gift!
You must be so pleased with it :)

what a fabulous pic your mam's done you proud
i asked a local artist how much for a painting and he charges £240 for one
mind you he's a fantastic artist

Some artists do charge a lot, this one only cost £70 framed
