This is Gwennie, my brother-in-law's Rhodesian Ridgeback. This is 9 x 12, watercolor, in Canson XL 140CP sketchbook. The paper is white, but the photo made it look toned. Since I have only painted a few dogs, I wanted to practice.
Such a sweet, contented expression on her face. Well done, Joy! I love the texture on the nose especially. I can just tell that Gwennie is a sweetheart.
