Yesterday’s post attracted the attention of a few dog lover bloggers, probably the #dog tag … :-). I’ve had a dog-on dog on my mind and at my side all day long, so earlier this afternoon I asked Annyth if she had a good picture of our Belgian Tervuren, Cowboy. She sent several. I chose this one because of his eyes.
This is a digital, freehand, side-by-side, iPad drawing using a reference photo and a Sty-HD stylus.

Good night.
NOTE: We haven’t yet moved into our new house. This is an old, innocent dog from the old Ragsdale neighborhood.
What? OK, between Phoenix and San Jose I opened up Paper 53 to pass the time at 35,000 ft. There’s nothing Southwest Airlines about this one, well maybe indirectly.
Update: The image in this post was selected to be among the 100 chosen for mDAC 2015, details here: http://www.mdacsummit.org/painting-winners-2015.html
Technical: Started this off with the black, single-continuous-line-with-one-or-two-exceptions technique in Paper 53 and then finished it off in Procreate with some coloring effects and stuff.
G’mornin’, my name is Cowboy, and I’m a 2005 Belgian Tervuren. It’s Saturday. I just ate. It’s time to play. I might take a short nap first, while I guard my favorite toy.
Sometimes my mat is like a mirror, sometimes it’s like a black hole. At any rate I feel grounded when I sense my inner dog’s face staring back at me.
