Bonnie the Dandie Dinmont was painted as a surprise Christmas present. The photo reference was a little limited so I painted from a couple of shots using one for pose and another for better lighting.
Hope you enjoy her progress. I was painting on location at Victoria Square market for part of it and didn’t stop to take as many progress shots as usual. A photographer friend managed to snap me in action though!

You always get a better sense of the colour of the dog with outdoor photographs. I’m also using the green grass background to set her off. |

It was very cold this day so I’m well wrapped up…fingerless gloves are useful! |
