German Shepherd In the Snow

German Shepherd in Snow by Nick Van DurenIn trying to capture the nobility and intensity, in a German Shepherd picture, you really have to pay attention to the eyes. I knew that German Shepherd lovers would enjoy this picture, but would also go over the painting “with a fine toothed comb”. There was absolutely no way they were going to be willing to hang a fine print of a German Shepherd picture unless it really conveyed the honest and true qualities of the breed.

There’s no foolin’ these folks!

This German Shepherd picture shows how focused the eyes of a German Shepherd can really be. He looks forward, not with a glance, but almost with a stair. He doesn’t appear on edge, but he does have a focused presence in this German Shepherd picture that really appeals to German Shepherd enthusiasts.

After a good winter storm in Colorado, the dogs were just itchin’ to get outside and play in the snow. The dogs not only enjoy rolling in it (and eating it!) but also playing catch. So I throw snowballs at them…and they love it!

This German Shepherd picture was taken right as a big snowball was being formed in my hands. He’s got that look of anticipation. You can just see the intensity of what he is about to do: catch a snowball that has been pitched at him full speed!

This German Shepherd is pretty good at it too!Playing fetch with the artist

Creating a German Shepherd painting can be a little tricky. Sure, there’s the eyes that must have that German Shepherd look. However, the breed in and of itself is very complex and has a rich history. Therefore, you must do everything possible to capture that beauty and grace, as well as portray the incredible friendship that German Shepherds are noted for. Take a look at the German Shepherd picture of an adult German Shepherd With Puppy just hangin’ out on the comfortable grass.

"This snow is deep!"I believe this German Shepherd picture really demonstrates some of the best qualities of the breed. In fact, it makes me want to go out and play “fetch the snowball” as soon as we get another storm! Being a GSD owner myself, I know how much these dogs mean to us. I believe that you’ll get the same enjoyment from this fine quality limited-edition print (taken from the original oil painting) as I have.
