This was one of my 1st pet portraits.

Here’s a watercolor painting of a Siamese cat. I did a simple background.

This is a good example of using the white of the paper for the white in a picture.

I had the privilege of painting an exotic pet and his owner.

I got to creatively personalize the portrait because of adding the finger painting behind them.

One of my first plans for this portrait. Though it was changed again before I did the painting.

This is an example of a 9″x13″ portrait.

This portrait was like painting a wild cat. Though the Bengal is tame.

Here’s the Real kitty.

When I start with a sketch, I try to make sure it’s as close to the same size to the photo as possible. This helps me keep better proportions as the picture progresses.

Second, I make a basic wash for each main section of color. A wash is a light color of watercolor paint

The 3rd stage began the detail. Making sure the perspective is accurate, especially with the eyes.

This portrait had a lot more detail than others, because of the curley hair. It was like doing a 2,000 piece puzzle. LOL.

The photograph was darker than the dog is, so I lightened the painting a little.

This is one of two of my workstations.

Duke was one of a series of paintings.

Beaux, a hunting dog.

This picture had a couple 1sts for me. 1st geometric pattern. and 1st pinstripe shirt.

I learned more on the natural coloring for animals doing this painting.

Continue to refine the detail.

I learned a lot about lines in shadow. Wow!

Oh another 1st. Light coming through window blinds.

Simba really did have a mane.

This is a practice to see how fast I can go in painting a picture. Not as fast as I would like yet. 🙂

This is Nikki a Toy poodle. He was done mainly in watercolor, but I also used watercolor pencils.

This picture was done in watercolor pencils. Very fun.

This is a good example of different stages in a dogs life.

A collage of memories.

I worked on the front 3 pictures 1st, matching colors so the pictures would blend well together.

There was much more detail in the main picture. It took a while to plan out each section to paint.

Pleased with the end results.
