Chow Chow Dog Art Original Painting Work in Progress WIP + Gothic Mermaid Art Website Update...



I'm taking a little bit of a break from my gothic angel fairy painting to work on this original 8"x10" chow chow dog painting.  The background is painted and I have started work on her features.  Next I will begin her fur.  I love animals and I find them a joy to paint...


I'm joining in this week with Paint Party Friday.  To see more participants, please visit:

Now Up on My Website!
"Looking In" Original 11"x11" Painting, Open Edition 8"x10" Giclee Prints & Limited Edition Giclee ACEO Prints Here

"Looking In" is one of my gothic mermaid paintings.  She is painted directly on to a porthole frame.  She has big brown eyes and long flowing dark brown hair.  Due to the round format of the original, I did digital variations to fit the 8"x10" print format and LE ACEO format which you may see on my website.  The art has a lowbrow surreal feel.  This piece is available as an original, as prints, and Limited Edition ACEOs!

My website at http://www.lisarusso.com has more art available, including additional mermaids in the fantasy art section!

Every week on Tuesday, I try to list a small original, some giclee art prints, and giclee LE ACEO prints at promotional prices. Visit here to see what I have available this week!

    Great WIP. I had a chow when I was a child, in fact two. The mama didn't look like a chow except for her black tongue and her hair color. Her pup Teddy was the typical red chow and so beautiful.

    And I love the picture of your beauty in the
    porthole frame. And I love the frame itself, too :))

    Have a beautiful weekend Lisa!

    Can hardly wait to see the Chow when it is done. Your mermaid is SO intense--whatever it is that she is looking at. Very intriguing.
