A few weeks back I went to an acrylic portrait demo, invited by fellow arty blogger Pat Elliot. As it was a bit of a drive for me and the demo was in the evening, Pat and her husband were kind enough to feed me and put me up for the night. I painted Pat's dear little dog, Missy, as a thank you.
Acrylic on paper, 14" by 10". No preliminary drawing, straight in with the paint - good fun!

Straight in with the paint is scary, but often the best emerges with the spontaneity.
ReplyDeleteStraight in - and a great portrait of our darling girl -- and a most welcome surprise gift.
