Dog Oil Painting

[RobinZ]

No, not a wild dog, but an animal and that's where this fits in our fledgling art site! A commission, oil on canvas. I use Blick's Premier splined canvas, a variety of pro quality paints and disposable paint brushes (I like Simply Simmons angle brushes). I use liquin early on to dry quickly, which is important with commissions especially selling them on sites that reward fast turn around.

Robin. Up front and personal. Cute.

Smiling doggie! This is a great piece! I also loved how you photographed this and we can see the edges of the canvas. What size is this?

 

[RobinZ]

Thanks, Wayne!

Arty, it's 16" x 20". I sometimes even photograph them with the easel showing to differentiate them from the "oil paintings" on Etsy that are photos run through a filter, since Etsy doesn't!

Laf, thanks so much! I thought so, too!

In my experience all dogs that size are wild.
Great job with it.

There's a lot of character in this painting! The fur looks so fluffy and I love all the colours.

Hes gorgeous and youve really captured his excitable Terrier personality!
