You met Parker the Puppy a few posts ago. This is pose number two that I've painted. I just simply couldn't pick between the two. She is so cute.

#30 - The Premier of the Pups

8" x 8"
Oil on Canvas Board
SOLD

A friend recently asked me if I painted pets. I said I never had, but I'd certainly give it a go. Here's the first result. This is 1 of 3 paintings of my friend's very-much-loved family pet. I consider this a preliminary sketch to see how I want to handle the final product. I used impasto medium to thicken the paint so that I could get the brushstrokes that I wanted. I will be sketching out one more version in a different pose, then rendering a finished painting on stretched canvas or hardboard.

Let me know what you think!
