Day 156


Everyday I'm Shuffling, (study), 6 x 6 inch oil on panel

This is a study for a larger painting. One thing I'm enjoying about these little daily paintings is using them to test out ideas for larger paintings and work the bugs out. This guy is my first Bulldog, and he was both challenging (that face!) and fun to paint.

  1. You make look it so effotless, Kat! Love this guy's expression. I also like how you handled the background, which really helps this Bulldog pop!

  4. The tension and movement of the dog are terrific as are the colors and brushwork. Great job, Kat.

  5. Love this dog! I can't believe it is your first. He looks like he could just step out of the painting. :-)
