Thirty Paintings in 30 Days - Day 14

What can I say.....another dog. Meet 'Millie'  - just a little pooch looking a little miffed as it was too darned cold to go for a walk this morning!!

I did a very quick sketch just to get something down and then got out the paint. As you'll see from the final painting I didn't follow it exactly. It just gives me some ideas and a few guidelines to follow when I start painting.


A quick sketch to start with. 







'Millie'
8"X8"
Acrylic mixed media (graphite & water soluble crayon, stencil)

  2. She is a 'late' valentine! Wasn't sure about the background - so decided to leave it and decide in a few days. In 24 hours it has grown on me and will leave it. Glad to hear your thoughts on it Sheila.
