Why it stands out
The limited palette of this piece with the added spot of colour through the red leash connecting the dogs is so enjoyable. Basing this coloured pencil piece in white with multiple figures shows a mastery with this medium and adds serenity to what was likely a joyfully chaotic and noisy scene.

MR FRECKLES
We love dogs - really all kinds of animals but mostly dogs! We have had multiple portraits of our furry children by several artists and we were ready to have another done when I found Lorna Dandy’s FB site. Lorna’s ability and technique took my breath away. Her use of colour allows her art to stand above others as you look for animal artists and I am thrilled that we chose her for our latest portrait. Mr Freckles is an elderly rescue we adopted just a few years ago, and Lorna not only drew him beautifully, but she’s captured his “old soul” personality in a way that I am not certain any other artist could have. When Lorna posted his partially completed portrait on TikTok, and in less than a week it had received over a million views, Lorna was recognised by all those viewers for the incredible talent she has! When we received the finished piece, I was so taken by how beautiful it was that I cried. She made our old boy into a rock star, but Lorna’s the real rock star of the art world.
