I had the pleasure of playing with this sweet, ball-obsessed pup at one of our daughter's regattas.  I went crazy taking pictures, and am working on two more of her and her favorite playmate (the ball!).

a glimpse at part of my process

I meant to take a photo earlier in my process, but I got caught up in the fun of this piece.  Luckily, I got this one pic in before I finished it!  To get proportions correct I make a grid on my panel and draw a simple sketch before beginning painting.  I use my Samsung tablet to crop and orient my photos, and also have an app to grid my reference photo.  This makes the whole process so much easier!
