I’ve just finished Badger’s portrait – now mom & dad will get to have a look at a larger photo of the painting and see if there’s any tweaking before it’s “officially” done.
Quite invigorating to paint on cam again – it’s been a few years! Way back when, in the land of LiveJournal, I started watching Jasmine Becket-Griffith paint on cam, and thought it was the coolest thing so I had to go get a webcam and do it myself. I stopped because I had some funky people stalking me (I did it on Yahoo IM then, and would get IM’s during my painting sessions, not very productive)! So now this little do-hickey seems to do the trick, and I’ll be able to paint live without a problem. Yay!
I’ll scan and post details when all is said & done on Badger’s painting. If you tuned in while I was in the studio, thanks for stopping in – and I’d love your feedback on the cam!

Thanks, Taba! :kiss:
Sue, thanks so much! I know how partial you are to huskies (and wolves!) – it means a lot to me that she’s a new favorite!
“Mom & Dad” are both blown away by the likeness and how gorgeous this is. Wonderful work Leanne. You’ve captured her true spirit of pure joy and zest for life. We will treasure this always!
I can’t wait for the next one!!! She’s not a regal… more of a jester… but beautiful all the same!
Love this one! The blue background really brings out his eyes. I have a bit of an affinity for it too because I saw it coming to life on the cam. One thing the cam did was to give me a sense of the canvas size relative to your hand.
Amazing !!!
I missed the webcam.. 🙁
I hope you do it again soon..
OMG! This portrait is gorgeous, Leanne! I LOVE it. :clapping:
:clapping: Very pretty!
:clapping: Gorgeous!!! :clapping:
woo hoo love those blue eyes! I remember your cam painting days from LJ….glad you are back doing it, maybe someday I’ll try it to!

Thanks “Mom & Dad” for tuning in! Of course I can’t wait to finish all of your babies, and I’d love to see them all grouped together on the wall, too!
June – it is much more personal seeing it come to life, isn’t it? The next one (hope to paint tomorrow) will be even more interesting because you’ll see the underpainting – once you see paint going down on a blank canvas, it’s an entirely different story, too.
Thanks for watching!! :hug:
Aparna – I will be painting live again tomorrow, if all goes as planned! I will update when I start painting. 😀
Thanks, Renee! (There will be more!)
Pam – thanks! :hug:
Caren! Good to see you! I’d love to watch you watercolor one of your horses, they’re just beautiful and I bet they flow right out of your brush!
Pawsome
Adorable
So uniquely done… words can’t describe
:thanku: for sharing with us online
Absolutely beautiful Leanne! :clapping: You amaze me everytime! I missed the live feed. I can’t wait to catch the next one, and see you do your thing!!
:beret: You are a true artist Leanne and captured Badger’s beauty and poise. She is a very special pup and you created a beautiful tribute!
YR – Thank you so much! I do hope you get to hang out while I’m in the studio painting from a blank canvas – it’s so cool to watch (and I say that because I have watched them come to life with other artists, too)!
Lena, thank you so much! Love to Sasha, too. :love:
woo hoo!!!!! Bodie, Kiera, Lena Malik are all Badger’s husky pals. A special thank you to their ‘moms’ for visiting and checking up on Badger’s portrait!
