Relatively Rare Beaded Sussex Spaniel

Thanks for all your comments on my last post! I hope everyone had a nice weekend! I was very busy! I didn't get to finish my beaded motorcycle yet, but I did finish beading my Sussex Spaniel that I started working on last week. It's amazing what one more layer of beads can do! Check out this collectible fine art pin:

For those of you who missed last week's post, this piece was inspired by Stump, the 10-yr. old dog who recently won Best in Show at the Westminster Kennel Club dog show. (Do you think he looks like Stump?) Please click the pic to view this listing in my Etsy shop. If you are interested in a custom beaded pin/portrait which is a different breed, please contact me through my website for more details. Thanks for looking! :D
