My Art Gallery
It all starts somewhere, right? Well....this is where it all started in July of 2017. I bought a few tubes of paint, a couple of brushes, some cheap paper, and away I went with not a clue as to what I was doing. I stood at my kitchen counter and painted circles.
I painted everyday. I watched a lot of videos and read a lot of books. Then I found Anna Mason.
Here are some of the paintings I did from her school.
Then....I found Rebecca Rhodes, and so started my journey of painting fur babies. Her school changed it all for me.
Here a few paintings I did from her school.
Now.....here are some that I have done on my own.
These three pups I did as a commission for one human. From left to right they are Monty, Ace, and Tom. Each one had their own unique challenges, but I learned a lot from each pup.
Ms. Marley is on the left, and I painted her because of her unique fur.
The lion in the middle I did for my nephew, Nicholas.
Tuck, on the right, was a commission for a friend.
Here are two pastel drawings I did. These are from an Emily-Mei Cross Tutorial that I did.
From left to right we have Duke, Lucy, Willow, and Reggie. These are some pastel pups I did for their humans. I still need a lot of practice, but I really do love how they came out. Humans loved them, too!
The squirrel I did with pastels, but I do not remember the name of the photographer. The reference image was used with her consent. Santa was a Jason Morgan tutorial, and it was done with pastels, also.
This is Banner Pup! He was an anniversary gift for a spouse. He recently passed, so I was glad we got this picture completed. Banner's human gave me a picture of a sunset from his farm and a pic of Banner asleep on the couch. I combined the two and this was the final outcome.
