  • Littles : Cat Portrait WIP #1

    March

    2006

    Here’s another underpainting, this is Littles, an 8″ x 8″ oil portrait. Both Joey & Littles will take a day or two to dry before I can work their next layer(s).

  • Joey : Cat Portrait WIP #1

    Joey and Littles are two cat portraits that I’m working on in oils. This is the underpainting of Joey’s portrait. Joey’s painting is small (4″ x 4″), so it will probably only need one more layer of fur and enhancements before he’s finished.

    Littles (the larger 8×8 canvas) and Joey (the small 4×4) are two kitties I’ll be painting (in oils) over the next week or so. I’ve got them sketched onto the canvas and will start working on their underpaintings tomorrow.

  • Dog Portrait : Joey’s Finished!

    Finally completed, heeeeere’s Joey!

    He’s an 11×14 oil painting, a custom dog portrait of a handsome black poodle – and he’ll be shipped later this week. I’ll scan and put up the final detail images when the painting has dried.

  • Dog Painting : Joey WIP #3

    (from last progress update… “This is an 11×14 oil painting, a custom dog portrait – he’s a black poodle…”)

    Here’s the first layer of Joey’s fur. His eyes, nose and mouth are done, although I’ll probably add a smidge more shine to his teeth and tongue. I’m estimating about 3-4 more layers of paint for the fur before he’s completed, but I’ll paint that wet-in-wet and finish his portrait up tomorrow.

    (from last progress update… “This is an 11×14 oil painting, a custom dog portrait – he’s a black poodle. I’ll post another progress when I complete his underpainting.”)

    This is Joey’s completed underpainting. This is the base from which I’ll paint his fur, deepen and brighten his eyes and mouth, and give his coat a nice soft shine.

  • Dog Painting : Joey WIP #1

    THIS. This is what I do for a living. I paint. I finally, finally paint. I have to first give special thanks to Yellow Rose. Why? Last week I went to her blog for the first time, and she had some music playing on her sidebar. She was kind enough to let me know the artists, and this morning I downloaded an assorted variety of songs by The Corrs. That music (it’s Celtic, Mom) kept me in my groove while I painted today, and will be what I have playing in the studio while I’m working this painting.

    BTW, this is an 11×14 oil painting, a custom dog portrait – he’s a black poodle. I’ll post another progress when I complete his underpainting.

    Feels good to paint again. I needed this.

    This is my sketch of Joey, a black poodle portrait I’ll be painting over the next week or so. I’m painting him on an 11×14 hardboard panel (aka masonite) in oil.

  • Custom Portrait J&L : WIP #4

    2005

    Almost finished! Tomorrow I will refine just a few more areas. The photo is yicky, sorry, the painting is very wet. The scan is always the best representation of the finished piece, I won’t be able to do that until Sunday night/Monday morning.

    You can view the work in progress in order by viewing the Still Life & People Paintings category. 🙂
