I hand-painted this custom oil portrait of this happy Husky, based on the original photo his human shared. Do you think I did him justice?

I loved painting this Husky. I removed the leash and kept the same outdoor background. I painted the water a brighter blue so his black-and-white coat stands out. The reference photo was blurry, so painting him correctly was difficult. This was a commission, and I’d love to hear your thoughts.
