As the lucky recipient of this work of art, I can tell you that it looks even better in reality than it does in the photo. My wife has shown it to all our neighbours, who instantly recognised it as a perfect likeness of Poppy, our Newfoundland dog who died a few months ago.

We are very grateful, Steve, to have this permanent reminder of Poppy. Your creativity and skill are amazing.

Thanks for the comments guys, it was a bit of a brain ache and a few tense butt clenching moments when cutting but when it was finished, oh the sense of achievement and relief was brilliant.

And that Bob gives me even more joy.
