Description Today's work, another little brown dog of indeterminate breed. This is 8" by 10", a commission. The reference photo didn't have much in the way of shadows on it, so I kind of played the shadows by ear, as they say.

He looks kind of like a Puggle. Half beagle half pug.

"Puggle" I imagine a beagle/pug would be a pretty cute mix. I don't know what breed this little fellow is, so I assume he's sort of a "Heinz 57 varieties".

I think it's because you captured his wits and intelligence in his eyes so well

RamonaQ In reply to Jon--s [2008-02-10 11:38:48 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! Sometimes the photos are taken with flash, which really messes up the shadows, so I occasionally just add shadows to make it look a little more "real".

Wow, thanks! The lady who ordered this one brought a camera card to the gallery with literally hundreds of photos! We went through them all until we found the one she really wanted me to paint.

spookowl [2008-02-08 16:05:39 +0000 UTC]

awww I love the expression. So I guess by indeterminate you means he is a heinz 57 (its a polite way to say mutt if you are unfamiliar with the term lol)

either way great work especially on the textures

RamonaQ In reply to spookowl [2008-02-10 11:35:45 +0000 UTC]

Thank you very much! Yep, he's a "mixed" breed, I believe, but there are an awful lot of really nice mixed breeds around. If I were to guess a breed, I probably say mountain feist - they always look like mixed breeds.

Aww, I love the floppy ears, they make it look so cute! And the fur looks great, I feel like I could just reach out and stroke it!!!

RamonaQ In reply to wolfA216 [2008-02-10 11:33:32 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I've got a ruined flat brush that I use for fur - it's great because the bristles have seperated, so it makes pretty nice fur.

Cute I like the way you do the darker edge around some of your dogs, it's sort of more stylised

I have sadly lost any possible creativity I might have had regarding titles. Maybe I could just name them after chapters from books or after Magritte paintings or something... Thanks very much!
