Update on current drawings

It's been a while since I last posted an update on the gorilla portrait. I have not worked any more on him lately but have so much little left to do that it would be a shame not to finish him (considering all the work I put in it so far)! Hopefully, I'll get back to him this week sometime or the next.

The horse drawing is coming along nicely, although the middle horse needs more blending in the darker areas to fill in all the tooth of the paper. I'd like to finish this one within the next few weeks as I have a large commission to work on once I receive all the ref photos. Let's hope I get good reference material this time!

Happy Canada Day to fellow Canadians!

Pastel portrait of German Shepherd Dog

Here's the finished portrait of Shelby, pastel on suede, 8x10. This one had its own challenges as the client wanted the dog with her mouth closed and most of the photos were not the best to work with. Thank goodness for Photoshop and high resolution scanners!!

I edited the look of my blog with the new template option...will have to think about it some more but I think I like it.
