Welcome to my “On The Easel” blog! You can follow the commissioned pet portraits I’m currently working on, all from first line to a completed work of art. I photograph various stages and post them as I’m working in my Studio.

Read my Art Articles about how to paint and draw in various mediums, how to scan artwork and much more!

You can also follow the life I share with my own two dogs Chatt & Ace, my two lovely Border collies. We train and compete in Obedience and Agility :).

Dog Painting In Progress of Viruta: Stage 3

This is the third progress post and second blocking in stage of Viruta. I’ve continued to add more color and blocking in the oil painting, by each stage with a bit thicker oil paint.
