Dog Portrait - WIP (Work in Progress)


Sorry about the glossiness - very wet paint..and glare on the surface. Just a little 'daily painter' - while watching the blizzard crank up to HIGH outside.  I often get so much paint loaded in these little ones, I need to give it a day or so to not be tooo wet to finish it.
Started another one but as they say, "Wipey. wipey!" Tomorrow is another day.

You can't see the swirling snow in the photo, but trust me, it is swirling and swirling.

Nice portrait. Snow! It's 81 here. I guess for sure, that ground hog really didn't see his shadow.

I simply LOVE your work with animals. A Tale of Two Donkeys is amazing and I like this one just as much. If I win the lottery I'm going to commission you to do multiple paintings of our farm. I don't know how but you absolutely capture the essence of the animal. Your art rocks! Thanks for sharing.
