Portrait of Seeko, for Katie (From Kari).
14x18 oil on canvas.
Finished painting.
14 x 18 oil on canvas.
I started by roughing in the background, quickly rendering the wicker chair. Then I started in with the darker shadows.
Once I was comfortable with the chair I began blocking in the color of the dog.
I started by projecting the photograph onto the canvas. I used a red pencil to trace out the general proportions of the dog and the chair. (Sorry, I didn't get pictures of that...)
