Hi everyone! Welcome back to my channel! If you’re new here, I hope you enjoy this video of painting my favorite dog, Bear. I always announce what I will be offering on my YouTube channel on my Facebook and Instagram pages, so check the links below to stay current with what’s coming next.
In this video this week, I am demonstrating capturing the likeness of this beautiful black German Shepherd. The challenge of this is working out the values and of course getting that lovely expectant expression in his eyes. Those are the biggest challenges we face in pet portraits! If you would like more instruction in painting animals, I will be teaching a pet portrait Online workshop beginning this Friday, (February 19, 2021!) Join me for 4 sessions to learn more about how to secure an accurate drawing and the various challenges of painting animals. I will be demonstrating painting a dog and a horse. You are welcome to paint whatever you’d like! Link below.
