The commission story

Study several photo references to determine the most expressive view, then create a sketch capturing the likeness on canvas, move to the under-painting to capture correct values and then taking time to complete details, sometimes I will choose my background first, other times I choose it along the way.

The outcome

Capturing a moment of the dogs personality and expression.
