REFLECTING ON LIFE

This is my girl Gracie, she has been one of my best subjects. The older she gets the more character she has, Gracie is everyones dog.  I painted this with very messy strokes and at first wasn't sure about it, after stepping away for awhile I am very pleased with the outcome.

HAPPY FACE

I took this photo last summer. I am sure this dog was smiling at me.  I find that teeth can be tricky, didn't fuss too much, a couple of strokes and voila there were teeth. I am starting to mix my colours on the canvas more and more, I love the effect.

I always enjoy painting a lab, probably because I own two, the face is always so full of expression.  Even though I have been working with oil paint for about two years I am still learning, your painting can look completely different just with the stokes and blending you decide to use.
