      Alex, I’m so sorry for your loss. My dog just got killed by a Pitbull 3 days ago and I’m devastated. I needed something to help me heal and that led me here. I do feel you and your mom’s pain. I know our dogs have crossed the rainbow and happy now. Just wanted to give you and your mom a big hug.

      @@Finedeserthouses I just wanted to send my condolences. It's tough enough to lose our most faithful household member, but when it happens tragically, you have so many added emotions. I won't say it will get easier, but it will get less difficult. We lost both our dogs to a terrible tragedy (though not to another dog), and it has been hard. That's why I'm on here learning how to paint! I'm hoping to find an outlet to honor them and other people's beloved pets.

    I don't understand how you (and other artists) manage to cover so much of your canvas when you have almost no paint on your palette. I find myself making massive blobs all the time, and constantly running out of paint and having to make new blobs.

      @jilliancrawford7577 2 роки тому +3

      If I may offer my suggestions based on what I learned: I was taught to paint the feelings rather than duplicate the reference, that if you wanted an exact copy of the reference, that is what photocopies are for. Basically, the details aren't as important as the feelings the viewer gets from the whole piece.
      To be more technical though, super stiff brushes can help with the bose texture as well as light dabbing with plastic wrap or foil. Things like scratchy kitchen sponges work well for this, though you sprobably wouldn't wanna use an old kitchen sponge if it's dorty lol. The faster you do it and less you think about it, the better or else you might get caught up in focusing on making perfect shapes that might ruin it. These are things you'd wanna practice in studies and work on the muscle memory before a final piece.
      I hope I am not injecting into this too much, especially since I work with a different type of paint, so feel free to ignore me.

    It's really nice how you put this one, esp on the whiskers, very clever! I have to try that sometimes. If you're really asking for comments regarding painting short haired vs long haired dogs I really have to say (from a non-trained painter pov) it's much easier to paint long haired ones. I'm still struggling with my short haired pet, (single colored - bet it's part of the reason why..) whilst I could paint my descended long haired shihtsu without same struggles. Guess I was still in love with the old one more!

    I have no problem on the face, the body. I paint landscapes right out of my mind.
    But the paws are getting frustrating and I mess up beautiful portraits because of some kind of doodle paws.
    And the only video's I find on dogs paws, are paw prints. Which people dip their dogs paw in paint and stamp it on a stencil.

I havent painted a curly haired dog before. And when i zoom on the photograph I see a lot of pixaly reds and greens. I dont have a choice think but to do it artistically and loose brushed... "Suggest" the fur so to speak. Not only do i not know how to paint curly fur, but I also dont know how to paint loose brushed. This is a new challenge for me. Im very discouraged.

    I’m painting a bull dog, a very wrinkled dog because his head is turned. AND he’s got a Merle coat 🥺

    Hi. I hope you can give me your extra paint materials. I really admire Van Gogh and I feel like Im going through the same disconnect to this world that I can only express through art. Sadly the paint is not that affordable. Hoping you have spare base color paints that I can use to paint. I would love to have it this Christmas.
