I have been working on this labrador portrait for a fellow veterinarian. Struggled a bit with the side view and not letting Lacey look too flat. Now I am having a bit of a hard time with the background. She was a family friend as well as a hunting companion and wanted to suggest the field the photo was taken in. Still working on it!
oh its beautiful,
ReplyDeleteThank you Laurie! I needed that encouragement on this one.
ReplyDeleteReally nice, Maria and I like the idea of suggesting the background. Your friend will love it!

ReplyDeleteThanks Sheryl and Jen, worked the background a bit, still not happy with it, I feel so close but can't quite put it together....yet.

ReplyDeleteThank you Diana, I have painted a chocolate lab and a few black labs, but not a yellow ..yet!
ReplyDeleteI know the owner, he will appreciate it no matter how it comes out, but it looks pretty darn good right now
ReplyDeleteIt went out to him this week, so we will see what he has to say! Lacey seemed to be a pretty amazing dog.
