Boys Update - Pastel WIP



Here is the latest on the boys. How about "Boys with their Toys" for a name?

Problems are the overall shapes. Since I'm using many photos it is difficult .. for me. Romeo has such long legs for such a tiny dog and was "watching TV" with the remote, so an odd angle on his leg. I think I will just add the remote. :) It will make more sense. I had Snugs foot bent at an odd angle and I think this last one addresses that fairly well. I will put the little red pillow under it and that should help. Didn't I mention several times about my drawings, changes and plans going awry? It is nothing like the preliminary sketch I made. Most artists do a drawing and then paint it. Ahhhhh, me.

Your painting of the boys is turning out great... I love the way Snugs looks. You did a good job on him and his color. Maybe the remote will help Romeo's leg out. You did good on Romeo's face. I love Snug's face as well. The title sounds good....

Thanks, Jennie. The painting is coming along .. slowly. I'm so impatient and want it done ... now!
