Dodgy Dalmatian

Posted on Jul 4, 2019 by Tom

A slightly unconvincing attempt at a young Dalmatian doggy. The painting I did, in watercolour for #WorldWatercolorMonth, is actually looks more square (and by square I mean rectangular) in real life, but my scanning skills would say otherwise. It is still far better than my oval-looking blurred photograph – but only just.

I found an image online, and then painted for an hour from memory. After I’d ‘finished’ the above, I compared this painting to the original, and realised I’d meant to paint a Doberman. Ahem. Obviously, I jest!
