Buddy

This is a demo that I did for the student class. I painted this very quickly so that I didn't take much class time. I wanted to show them how to get a nice fur texture. I exaggerated some of the highlights so they could understand "clumping" shapes, highlights... But anyway, I am happy to finally do a portrait of my little Buddy.

Wow! Buddy is wonderful! Look at those eyes - you've really captured an adorable expression! Your students are so fortunate! Wish I could join the class!

Maria, you've done a wonderful demo, and this portrait is wonderful! Buddy is a bright-eyed little cutie! I also love the portraits of pets done on the Room 101 site...I'm headed there next!
