KATJAS WORK IN PROGRESS BLOG

So the portrait of Doberman Hunter is finally finished and I’m posting the Final scan and a close-up of him today. The reference photo was on the edge of being in to poor quality for a painting, but the client wanted the portrait so much so I decided to go for it. The background wasn’t  originally in the photo, that was added when I created the photo montage before I started to paint. When it comes to colors and light I achieved what I wanted and I’m happy with the result so I’m hoping the client will be happy too. The portrait is in size 38 x 47cm.

Now I will take my car to the art supply store and buy some canvas to stretch. I will start with a big painting of a boy and a dog. I’m really looking forward to this one, because the reference photos are great. I will of course also continue with the watercolor paintings of Dodger and Adrian later today. I’m hoping to post next stages of at least one tomorrow.
