Labrador

The Labrador has been the world's most popular dog for a reason. Steady, willing and famously good-natured, a Lab meets the day at full speed and treats strangers as friends who simply have not been introduced yet. Bred to work water and marshland all day, they keep that cheerful stamina indoors - along with the thumping, unstoppable tail that comes with it.

Each portrait is an original watercolour: confident, visible brushstrokes on cold-press paper, in the tradition of natural-history illustration rather than smoothed-over digital art. Real paper grain, real pigment variation, the occasional soft bloom where wet colour met wet colour.

Watercolour suits a Labrador's short, dense coat: not much fuss, a lot of shine, and all the character concentrated in the face.

Available coat colourways: Golden, Black, Cream and Brown - the real Labrador palette. Match the portrait to your own dog, or simply choose the one you love most.
