WIP Chow Chow Puppy Dog Art Original Painting Work in Progress + Sketches of Big Eye Fantasy Maidens & Flowers / June 30-July 6 / Art Sketch Daily...



In this original acrylic painting of a chow chow puppy dog, I'm very close to being done.  I've been working on her nose and whiskers.  Now that I have her scanned in, I'm going to previs the highlights in her eyes and when they're painted she will very likely be all done...  The panel that I'm painting on is 5"x7"


This is a work in progress, but I also usually post at least one finished piece on Tuesdays if you'd like to come to visit!  You also may see some of my finished paintings at lisarusso.com if you'd like.

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

============================================

June 30-July 6

This is a bit of a large group, sometimes I fall behind in scanning them in, but so far I have been consistent in sketching daily.  It's something I really enjoy, these are just rough sketches, but I hope that you will enjoy them.


Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  She has an expression of gentle concern.  I think she is most likely a goddess, although she could also be a fairy angel or a mermaid.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.


I've decided to try and do a sketch a day in June. This is from day 30. 

This is a rough sketch.


Here is a sketch of a big eyed maiden.  She has a soft sweetness...  I think she is most likely an angel fairy, although she could also be a mermaid or a goddess.  I'm unsure if I'll paint her or not, but I did enjoy sketching her.
