This is my dog Levi. He's a labradoodle, is as scruffy as they come and is still very much a puppy! For this one, I thought it'd be fun to show the process.
1. First I had to get a decent picture of my dog, not as easy as it sounds:
WINNER!
2. Map out the painting:
3. Mix the colors (You betcha I held up my pallet to my dog to make sure the colors matched):
4. Slab on the colors with a pallet knife (quickly covers a lot of surface):
5. Levi's approval, very important
6. Choose a background color
7. Fill the background and flesh out the other colors
8. Add the detail and contrasting colors
