Art Sketch of an English Springer Spaniel Dog...

Here is a sketch of an English springer spaniel.  Dogs are such sweet animals!  My reference for this dog was a very small image and while I might try this kind of dog again at some point, I'm unlikely to paint this specific one.  I did enjoy sketching him though.  I chose him because the 29 faces challenge starts again tomorrow, so since I'll be sketching lots of faces soon, I decided for today to sketch this pup.  


This is a rough sketch.  You may see some of my finished paintings at http://www.lisarusso.com if you'd like.

I am also participating in Sunday Sketches.  To view more Sunday Sketches, please visit:

This is a commission painting I did a while ago for the ever wonderful Tin.  It's titled "Wendy on the Rocks."  It is loosely inspired by Leondardo da Vinci's painting "Virgin of the Rocks."  The lovely Wendy is the client's wife and Beau and Belle are their beautiful Bichon Frise kids.
