Good morning everyone! Here is a painting of one of my dogs that I did from a photo. This one really gave me problems, because she is a dapple colored dog and it was hard to get the whites and the blacks to look like dog hair. Plus, I did it at 300 resolution because I plan on printing it out, so a lot of the stroke detail got lost in the downsizing for the web. Now I only have three more dog portraits to go!
Have a good one!

Great job, Carolyn! Looks very realistic to me. Seems like you got the blending of the "dapples" just right.

Thank you so much Crow Haven and David! Yes, she is a sweetie, however, very spoiled! I used Fantastic Machines Paint Engine filter on her coat to try and give it a little more depth. My brush strokes just weren't getting it. And actually the eyes were the easiest part for some odd reason.
I am so glad that more people are dropping in and visiting with us!
Have a good one everybody!
