Original Dachshund Portrait (2024) Original Pencil Drawing by Paul Nelson-Esch

This is an original mixed-media portrait of a Dachshund — the beloved sausage dog known for its playful spirit, curious eyes, and unmistakable silhouette.

Inspired by the quirky charm and loyal character of the breed, this piece was created to capture that unique Dachshund personality — alert, expressive, and full of warmth. I used a combination of pencil, marker, acrylic, and pen to bring out the texture of the fur, the gleam in the eyes, and that iconic long body. The result is a vibrant, lovingly detailed tribute to one of the most iconic dog breeds.
