Burger
/This commission had a slightly different angle to previous ones. Tim approached me with the idea to commission two ‘illustrative’ digital watercolour sketches for a story he was writing. It was a true story based on the extraordinary events of how Burger and his son met. It was wonderful to explore this idea with Tim and we ended up making a greeting card of one of the sketches.
“I commissioned this picture of my dog Burger and I’m delighted with the result, which I adapted for my Christmas cards. Burger was discovered living wild in the Himalayas at 5000m by my son who arranged for her to be adopted by me in Snowdonia. I like how Susie’s image of Burger captures not only her look but also the fabulously isolated scenery. Burger is well known here, for her back story and her unusual name, given to her because she stole my son’s hamburgers! Copies of this picture are proudly displayed in several local cafes and homes. I am happy to recommend Susie, she is talented, diligent and professional.”
