Cavalier King Charles spaniel portraits

Feathering and a domed head. The ground needs to stay simpler than the coat.
Studio example. A French bulldog in the manner of a classic oil portrait.
A studio example of Classic oil, shown for the manner rather than as this breed.

Cavaliers carry a lot of hair at the edges of the face. A photograph where the eyes are not covered is worth more than a prettier one where they are.

Oil on umber separates a chestnut coat from the background. Watercolour is the lighter alternative. The regal coats are possible, though they cover some of the feathering the breed is known for.
