-Brandy-
Description:
This is part of my coursework. Its my first coloured portrait of a dog and I had to do a brindle one.
So I chose my friend, Keihound's dog, Brandy to draw.
I'm happy with this picture, or at least I was until I took a look at the ref I used and realised how off it was. I printed the ref photo off but my printer always prints out in the wrong tones and so it came out lighter than it should. Thus the colours of my picture are a bit off and so is the proportioning of the muzzle (mine's too long). I liked it until then. Unless you compare it to the ref though, the picture looks ok.
I don't know if I'll get the hang of pet portraits but I've only done four of them so I guess I can't be too harsh on myself (even though I always am unless its a simple cartoon drawing)
