Henry Our Beautiful and Funny Golden Retriever

A Portrait



Henry is a rescue dog.  We have had him about three years and he has enriched our lives tremendously.  He is about 5 now and goes with us wherever we can take him.  I decided to paint Henry and the following is the process it took to get to the final portrait.  It is watercolor on Canvas with an Acrylic background.  It took me a while as I cannot devote all my time to painting and in the meantime just a couple of months really, Henry's face got a little whiter.  Just the same he is the best leaner, gentle and loving dog.  We are so fortunate.

Mona, all four views are fun.  I loved the drawing/sketch, it turned out better than expected and so I am framing this one as well to preserve the drawing.  I have always loved pencil both colored and non colored.  The second picture of the painting I was about half way through and like to capture what I am doing, it had a lot of refining yet to be done but the final painting was really fun to finish.  The background is acrylic and the rest watercolor.  Mostly I paint from the tube in both mediums, some is watered down but not much.  Thank you for your kind comments.
