Pat's Pet Portraits and Wildlife Art

I only have three paintings going at once now : )
This is my Pepper...

I added some purple to the background to tone it down and I think it helped to make the wolf come forward. Added lots of darker fur and am working on a nose that wasn't right....later I'll bring back the lighter fur.....

A painting I started at a demo tonight.....photo of it was under flourescent lighting so it's not quite accurate, but to me this painting is "magic".....looking forward to finishing it.
