Dog Portrait Painting Process of Tika - Step 7
by Carol McIntyre on 2/9/2010 12:23:40 PM
The background area - the bushes, evergreen and sky - are about finished. Though you cannot see it, there are several colors that make up the reddish bushes. I used my pastel pencils and deligate strokes to give them an airy feeling. Not sure about the sky and I am thinking is needs a little more reddish blue tones. What do you think?
The snow area has been softened, as well as Tika. The circle around her eye reminds me of a bull dog, but I will fix that soon. Now I need to work more on the "gentle giant" that she is, though I must not forget to get the dormat trees in the mid-ground area.
