This larger painting is complete. I liked the composition of it with the three dogs. The background gave me a few sleepless nights.
"She just couldn't decide between being an artist when she grew up and being a vet. Her mother responded, you don't have to decide sweet girl. you can be both."
I also like the composition, shows off their skinny legs!
ReplyDeleteGosh, they do have skinny legs! Their anatomy is so different from other dogs, it was challenging to get it down.
DeleteWhat a gorgeously successful work of art, Maria. The owner(s) will be thrilled. Your background is perfection in my opinion!
ReplyDeleteOH thank you, I sweat a bit over the background, must practice some landscapes I think!
DeleteYou did a gorgeous job with the background and the dear grey hounds ..Beautiful work, Maria, love,Diana
ReplyDeletethank you Diana! This one was so tough for me, haven't painted little greyhounds before and they have such a different head shape, and eye expression, had to keep reworking here. Need to paint something happy and loose now to loosen up a little~
DeleteI love this - you really captured the personality of these dogs and great choice on the background technique.
ReplyDeleteThanks Margaret, that means so much to me, this one was challenging for me and I appreciate the positive feedback so much.
