Tala and Xee - first meet

Postby MaineiacJay » Sat Nov 19, 2011 5:03 pm

the timer is way off lol. i have no internet at my house, so i have to preload the oekaki screen at work so i can work on it at home... then waiting again to save and post it at work.... the total time i spent on this is probably about 5 hours, the rest was just waiting for internet...

im working and its a little hard to bring my tablet with me, so i just started the outline for this painting, and ill finish it up with my tablet later =)

at any rate, this is a painting showing the first meeting between my Northern Mix, Tala, and his little sister, Xamira, a Rottweiler. the reference is a personal photo that is not the greatest quality, but it captured the emotions of both dogs i think...

Tala has a little bit of a dog aggression problem (he was attacked by another dog on a walk when he was younger - still working on it) but he has a soft spot for puppies. he just ADORED Xamira. its helped tremendously with his problem to get this little girl and show him that not all other dogs are bad =) now Xee is a year old and these two are inseparable :thumbup:

ADD: sorry for posting in intermediate. i suspected i would finish it that day, then decided sleep was more important (two jobs and such). ill finish it today for sure though, full day off! woot!

Wow, I love the type of texture that you presented. This looks amazing.
Signature is a work in progress...Image
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
King Arthur: Not at all. They could be carried.
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: What? A swallow carrying a coconut?
King Arthur: It could grip it by the husk!
1st soldier with a keen interest in birds: It's not a question of where he grips it! It's a simple question of weight ratios! A five ounce bird could not carry a one pound coconut.
