Bethy & Blue
My first painting of our dog ConnieI am a watercolour artist from Northern Ireland and a whippet mum of one—meaning I am thoroughly micromanaged by a small longdog called Blue. I have a lifelong love of dogs and all the quirks that come with them.
I have had a paintbrush in hand for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I have explored a wide range of artistic mediums but discovered a particular love for watercolour. From a young age, I was fortunate to receive recognition for my work, placing first in Northern Ireland at GCSE level for my Fine Art projects on St George's Market, Belfast, and insects. I also received first place at the NI Schools True Colours Exhibition, an award from the Ulster Arts Association, and have had my work displayed in the Ulster Museum in Belfast.
Although I chose not to pursue art as a career and instead study medicine in Belfast, creativity has remained an important part of my life. Throughout my studies, I have continued to paint, finding joy in making art alongside medicine.
My love for dogs, especially my little whippet Blue, inspired me to create Pup n’ Pun: a collection that celebrates the charm of our fur companions while honouring their personalities. My work is not an exact science, and as I am always evolving as an artist, each painting is unique. I really hope you enjoy having my work on your walls as much as I enjoy creating it!
Whether it's a custom order or a printed replica, each has been designed and painted by me.
I work from your photos to capture the likeness of your dog, and I'll always send proof before posting.
Printed on archival quality paper, it's wall decor you'll cherish for years.
Photographed on my easel — how every piece comes together, from pencil to paint.
In pencil, from your photos — until the likeness and the attitude are right.
Next, I apply loose, light layers.
Here I add depth, and it starts to come to life.
This is where the character lands. You approve a proof first.
