Bathing Time

I like to experience with coloured background. This time I've just  pushed the experience even further: wet fur on that coloured background. Have you take notice that in those big, fluffy furs there are spindly legs?

Grief - dog portrait

Painting a sad dog is healing to the soul. 

The experiment here is the vivid red base and the limited palette.

A True Aristocrat

Usually I have to find a reason why to paint a given painting. It can be a beam of light, a wonderful colour, a smile on a face, a .... whatever that touches my soul. If i don't find that specific reason, my soul gets bored.
In this case the reason was 'that look'. Just a born aristocrat can have 'that look'. I hope it comes through.
