Charlie Boy Boxer Portrait by V. Bridges Hoyt


CHARLIE BOY
watercolor and ink on Arches 140# cp paper
8x8 inches

In my wash and line technique, Charlie Boy is my pet portrait showing the character of a fine Boxer who was rescued by Lone Star Boxer Rescue in Houston, Texas.

Charlie's foster mom fell in love with and adopted him 4 years ago. Not too long ago, Charlie was diagnosed with mast cell disease. His mom knows that her time with Charlie will be short and reminds herself daily that the quality of time spent with Charlie is more meaningful than their quantity of time together. We would all do well to remember that in our relationships with pets AND people.

Boxer Pet Portrait by Texas Artist V Bridges Hoyt

I love animals and love to paint their portraits. The boxer lady below lives far away from me, but her "mommy" sent several photos for me to work from. I used them all for reference, and by the time the portrait was finished, Queenty and I had become good friends via the internet. Contact Vernita.

Reputation of a Boxer Dog by V Bridges Hoyt

Take care of your reputation. It's your most valuable asset. —Life's Little Instruction Book.

"Reputation" of the Boxer pup Huxley. 10x8 inch mixed media on panel. Your purchase of this painting will generate a donation to Legacy Boxer Rescue in Texas. Click here for more information about the donation.

This little boxer pup was orphaned at birth. Legacy Boxer Rescue took him in and found him a foster mom who later adopted him. Perseus, as he was known in the beginning, later was renamed Huxley. I have gone back into this earlier painting and added "Huxley" to the placard behind. I'll be doing a bit more detail work on the script "Huxley" as soon as the paint is dry. Originally I named the painting "Hux in a Tux" but on the repaint I decided to add Huxley's name and rename the painting "Reputation." Huxley earned his reputation first under the name of "Perseus" as the unofficial mascot for Legacy Boxer Rescue as he fought all odds to survive. Anyone who loves boxer dogs would be proud to have a painting of Huxley on their wall. Huxley represents determination and reputation.
