An Irish Setter sitting with its head turned to the left, the long feathered coat painted in orange, chestnut and sienna with violet in the shadows. The fur is laid in long strokes that follow the way it falls, and there are turquoise and yellow washes with splashes behind it. It is a portrait format and is often bought for someone who grew up with the breed. The Gordon Setter is the black and tan cousin.
Why it is a limited edition
Each print is made in an edition of 150, and I sign and number every copy in pencil under the image. The edition is small so that every copy can be made properly: the file is scanned from the painting itself, printed on museum-quality cotton paper with archival pigment inks, compared with the original in daylight and corrected until the colours match, and only then signed. When the last copy is sold, the edition closes for good.
Paper, inks and sizes
- Archival pigment inks on acid-free, museum-quality watercolor paper, so the texture of the original is kept
- Framed canvas options in a black wooden frame, ready to hang
- 15 sizes, from 8 x 10 in (20 x 26 cm) to 40 x 55 in (100 x 140 cm)
- Small sizes ship flat in rigid cardboard, large sizes rolled in a hard tube, worldwide with tracking
The frame is not included unless the option says Framed Canvas. Not sure which size fits your wall? Write to me with the width of the furniture under it and I will suggest one. Reproduction rights remain with the artist.

The artist making this portrait has an unique insight for the animal portraits she creates, capturing the nuances of the respective animal she is portraying. I got this portrait just in time for my birthday through all the mailing log jams internationally. You will be proud of any portrait outcome you purchase from this artist.

I bought this painting as a birthday present for my father, who is fond of irish setters, and it is absolutely gorgeous! It looks beautiful and is really unusual, something one of a kind. I am looking forward to see my dad’s reaction. I am absolutely sure he will be amazed. Thank you for such a great job!
