We're moving right along here.  Dark dogs are hard.  Not as hard as baskets, but they pose their own set of problems.  :)  I'm still working on these two . . . but we're getting close.  I feel like now I'm in the "sit, look, wait, paint . . . sit some more, look some more, paint a stroke and wait some more" phase.  Have a happy painting day!

Doggy Painting Update . . .

I'm working on lots of things -- paintings, daily chores, upcoming holiday stuff -- so this is going to be a short and sweet post.  Here's the progress on the dogs -- have a great day!  (how was that for short?! -- thanks for stopping by!)  

Doggy Development

This is going to be a short post as I have lots of painting to do, but I took a little time out to photograph my progress on this latest commission as I thought you might like to see it. It really takes time to evolve.  The dog in the foreground started out like the one in the background: just vague blocking in. Incidentally, it's sometimes helpful to see the images photographed because often errors will reveal themselves more easily. I'm actually noticing things now that I hadn't seen in real life . . . some good, some that need fixing. 

Anyway -- I'm off to paint some more -- as you can see, I have lots of work to do!  Have a glorious and productive day and thanks for taking a peek.
