ooh my gosh, this is totally beautiful…looks just like my baby..Daisey May…she is a CollieRottChow breed. The smartest most well behaved dog I’ve ever seen…until it starts thundering!
Sasha is well behaved, but afraid of her shadow. She was found in a dump along with her brother. I was doing foster care for a rescue group, and she came to stay until she was adopted. She kept getting passed over, and one day she put her foot down and announced that she was staying put and not going to anymore adoption days. I had little or no choice in the matter.

OK…I did the painting back in 2009 while taking a Pet Painting class. The brush I used primarily was Acrylic > Captured Bristle. I used several of Dens brushes in the background, but I’m not sure which ones. Hope this helps…Skip
Thank you JoAnn,
She is a sweet dog. She is very old now and sleeps most of the day. I have been away from home for a month, but my partner brought her to Mississippi and I got to see her.

Nice use of color. The contrast Orange-blue in Sasha’s hair functions very well
Thank you…this was one of my favorite paintings.

this is absolutely beautiful! if you don’t mind me asking, what sort of brush did you use to create her fur? it’s gorgeous!
I don’t mind at all, but I don’t remember. I’m pretty sure I can find it tomorrow…oops…it’s already tomorrow…so let me say when I wake up. 🙂
Thank you! 🙂

Thanks so much, Skip! I’ve been trying to paint fur and haven’t been successful; I’m hoping this will change that!
Thanks and happy painting,
Skip
Just beautiful Skip! Love it. 🙂
Thanks Anna Lisa,
She is a sweetheart and I think I caught her inquisitive nature.
Thanks for the comment and I hope you visit often,

So beautiful. So real I want to hug her. Looks a lot like my childhood dog, Mugzy.
