Finished or not?

Duffy and Hugo who live in LA

Working on some dog portraits in acrylic

These paintings are not actually as dark as the photos. I am still practicing my photography skills which are lacking. These are for my sister who recently had to put down her sweet labrador, Willow. An especially kind dog who will be greatly missed.

Done entirely with two palette knives. No brushes makes the texture rough.

This acrylic painting is about 36x24 inches.

I think this is finished. It will hang on the wall for a while to decide if changes are needed. With this kind of painting, I am never happy enough to leave it alone until I just get sick of it. Fun to paint and then it becomes too much and I go and start another one. The learning process...

Fiddling with the acrylics again. 2 unfinished paintings here.

The mountain. 12" x 9" unframed
