Lithography

Six lithographs of dog portraits.
 
Each dog portrayal is very realistic, elegant, and set in a simple landscape that showcases the animal. They have been handsomely framed in a black clean, classical molding. The portraits have excellent details with soft colors and dramatic lighting. The results serve to depict a palpable presence of each subject.
