Description
This is defintely not my usual kind of thing.I used Opencanvas mostly, with a little fixing in Photoshop. I only had the one photo of him, and it was kind of hard to work from, especially since I've never drawn a dog before. I don't really even like looking at dogs because they're scary, but this one is a real sweetheart.

haha "i don't even like looking at dogs because they're scary"...
You did an excellent job maintaining your style in this piece. It's very unique even though it's taken from a photograph. I've done my share of dog portraits before, and it's always hard not to just copy the thing and get it over with. Awesome brushstrokes, looks like real paint

the moist doggy eyes are a must... beautiful piece that brings warm feelings.
awesome work, once again, but the greenish tint that the whole image has looks tiring in the uni PC i'm currently sitting. :S

Cute. The strokes work well with the color pallete. I wish I could explain that, but you probably know what I mean.

This is really fantastic (as usual) His right eye looks like it could use a bit more contast (darker pupil) perhaps, but your style matches the subject well. Right on!

nice, u captured proportions as well as expression very effectively.
the colour range seems too small for my taste, but it might have been your intention to keep that part simple.
keep it up (needless to say)

How sweet! I love it, and not just because I'm a big softie when it comes to puppies, but also because the technique/execution is very, very nice.... very painterly, for a digital piece! Color me impressed!

OHHH LOOK HOW SWEET. I love this. You used your usual unbelieveable style of blending colors so well... bold and sweet, you really know how to bring out the important, notable aspects like the eyes and ooooh the sweet wet nose in this one. great job.

i prefer this composition better, or maybe its just the way the dog's looking so innocent. hahaha

The way you have depicted his eyes would have led me to believe you had been around and drawn dogs all your life - nice work. Like the cat too!
