Today's Painting

Ringo and his Wife Bella . . . . Mastiff Masterpiece Finished!


Mastiff Masterpiece Finished!
18" x 24"
Oil on Canvas
Private Commission

Close-up of their faces.

I really wish you could see it in person. I am very happy with the way this turned out. Below you can see the inspiration piece for this portrait. There were about 15 different variations in color, but I bought a book on art and scanned in the photo. It is much more colorful than the painting that I have here, but I'm not going to bother to replace it.


Alfred Sisley and his Wife by Renoir

I made a few changes - the color of the gloves was changed from fawn to white because the male mastiff (Ringo) is fawn colored and you couldn't tell that he had a glove on one paw. I thinned down the tree in the background, just because I wanted to :)

Tomorrow I start another interesting portrait - another anthropomorphic painting - this time a cat in a library! I'll show you the initial sketches, color study and then take you along as I go. Also I have a couple daily paintings planned in my mind :) hopefully I'll get to them.

This painting ships out tomorrow - I'm sure going to miss it!! if you would like to have a painting like this of your animals, or even yourself - please !

Live Creatively!

Woof! A Cat!

Indigo
American Shorthair / Siamese Cross
16 " x 20"
Oil on Canvas

At least that is what his owner thinks he is. He is a huge, beautiful cat, very quiet for a Siamese. He was rescued from a neglectful situation and has adjusted well to his new lifestyle. This is a commissioned portrait inspired by the painting I did of the hairless cat on a retro background.

If' you're going to be in the Fort Worth area on April 25 come by the Will Rogers Memorial Center and visit me at the Funky Finds Spring Fling - It's FREE and pet-friendly and looks like it's going to be a lot of fun. I'll be painting and doing dog caricatures . . .


The painting is signed, the website copyright appears only on the internet.

Most of these are quick oil paintings that capture the essence of the dog without the full time and size of a fine art oil portrait. These sketches take a few hours, compared to the days or weeks that I spend on a commissioned portrait.
