No, I don't. I drew it from a photo of a friend's boxer. He was a fantastic dog.

Absolutely amazing you did this with colored pencils! He's just so shiney and the black part is gorgeous and so dark, a wonderful portrait all together!
The only suggestion I could think of is this little bit of background you've drawn on the dog's left side (for the viewer); I think the color is ok but the contrast is too little.

Your critiques are right in line with my own opinion of this piece. I drew it a great many years ago, when I was still most focused on rendering skills. After that I took my art and ran in a completely different direction, focusing more on very strong lighting contrasts. I'm also still very much working on my compositional techniques.

Yes I saw that you pay a lot of attention to lighting, nice to know that you agree with my thoughts about your drawing. It's still very well done though!!

Beautiful...how long did you work on it?

sidneyeileen In reply to CynthiasArtVault [2011-08-08 18:50:18 +0000 UTC]

It was a few years ago, so I would guess about twenty hours. I'm much faster now, but it would still probably take about 12 hours to do something this detailed, this size.
