Bentley, a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel

Finished painting of Bentley, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, 12″ x 12″ acrylic by Hope Lane

I really enjoyed painting Bentley’s flowing ears and his feathery ruff–you can really see how this breed got their name. He’s the image of what the English gentlemen cavaliers looked like, in their long curled wigs and with lace around their collars. He even has the proper solemn expression.
