Libby Caldwell - The Brave Little Boxer


Oil on Panel, 18" x 24"
Had great fun painting this dog - especially his face. I handled the painting of the face with short squishy strokes - rather like the shape and feel of the face itself. The water was painted surprisingly fast using thin paint. I used a palette of 6 colors.

The very transparent water.
The lights and the sheens, excellent.
The intense Sun.
Congratulations.
