11 x 14 Watercolor
Zeus was a great dog. He belonged to Betty McMillan, my sister-in-law's mother. He's gone now, but Sonja wanted me to paint a picture of him for her mom. I finished it last night.
In an effort to get his likeness right I was a prisoner to the reference photo. It was only when I put the photo away and just painted that it started to look like anything good. Nevertheless, I still wish it was looser.

Dori, welcome! and thank you for your comment.
Aminsaim, hello! and thank you for your post. Keep going with the watercolors. I've heard you get the hang of it around the 1000th painting!
