You can see the progression of this portrait on my FB page Animal Artistry Portraits and I am hoping to create a video as well and post to my YouTube channel in the not too distant future.
In the meantime, I have many personal projects I want to work on but have been getting a steady stream of clients so the paying work has to come first. I enjoy every bit of it and would not want to be doing anything other than painting and drawing except perhaps spending time playing in the gardens. Summer is so short, we have to take advantage of the warm sunny days when they occur.
Stay warm and don't forget to take some time to smell the roses!

This is really fabulous, Colette. I think the cast shadow from his snout contributes greatly to the three dimensional feel you've achieved. You're clever!
ReplyDeletelol, thanks Peter, but I can't take all the credit...good ref pics really make a difference as to how the finished product can look like.
DeleteExcellent portrait Colette!
ReplyDeleteThanks Hilda, sorry for the late reply!
DeleteWow .. fabulous portrait. I'm amazed how much detail you've got into a relatively small picture.
ReplyDeleteI tend to work small so I'm used to it but it's not always easy! Thanks for your kind words and I apologize for the late reply!
