In Memory of our dear little friend. The dog in this picture was a very good friend to my family and others. Although he has passed away I wanted to give their family something to remember him by. I wanted to paint him in a very noble way. Nox, was a beloved dog and we will always miss him. By using a mixture of color and brush strokes I tried to evoke a sense of the a very colorful happy memory. My scanner didn't pick them up too well but I used a few colors in the hair: pink,red,blue,yellow, and orange. The only thing that I would change is that I used yellow on the skin...which doesn't look to good. I think I might redo it and use more of a pink and blue on the skin. I have found that there are so many things you can do with them that I have put my drawing pencil down so to speak (not really! hehe )
