Here is some more in progress work on the pet portrait I did in acrylic, an 8 x 10.
In my previous post, I showed you the initial layers, using the glazing technique--where you thin the paint down with clear acrylic medium, and apply it in several translucent layers, to give the painting a rich, colorful surface.
In this video--where the portrait is more than halfway done--I show you how I enrich the color with specific colors, as well as add detail, to make the dogs fur look convincingly real.
Here is the final portrait.
Have a blessed day,
