Creating Edgar the German Shepherd

 This is a beautiful picture of Edgar. I wanted to create a tropical lush feel in the final painting while making Edgar the focal point. By cropping in tighter, I was able to get more detail in Edgar's eyes and fur. By using a wet in wet technique for the background, the effect is soft and out of focus like a photo taken with a small aperture.  It was important to retain the whites with masking fluid unfortunately, my application nib was clogged so I resorted to my eyeliner brush, which worked out even better. What do you think? Would love to hear your thoughts or questions.

Hey I'm Kemsikela.
I’d love some tips on how to train my 5 months old <a href="https://www.germanshepherdsblog.com">German Shepherd</a> puppy named Zeus . My husband just recently got him and he hasn’t had any training whatsoever.
The only thing he knows for now is his name an he sometimes doesn’t respond to it when I try to train him. He’s also usually too playful during training and doesn’t respond to my efforts.
I’d also like to know how to stop him from jumping and licking my hands everytime I get close to him.
Thank you.

    I enjoy painting unique and lively paintings, inspired from photos sent by the people who treasure them.
