 PeeWee's eyes are nearly done.
I love painting the eyes in a dog portrait - I know an artist who paints the eyes in the very early stages of a pinting - but I like to work up to it. By waiting, we become better acquainted and I am able to acquire deeper feelings for the wonderful pet. How do you react to her eyes? Is her intensity there? She is beginning to appear as if she on the look out for something, though we may never know what it is.
You will also notice more detail around her eyes and integration of the colors throughout the painting.
...to be continued.
