Thanks Wess. I paint with acrylics. I have just purchased the new Open Acrylics, but have not tried them yet. They are suppose to respond more like oils. Recently read more about the new water-thinned oil paints -- it seems the two new inventions are coming closer together.

Did you do the picture in your avatar?

Amy,

That sounds cool on the new paints. I dabble a little with acrylics, but haven't done a dog yet.

Yeah I did my avatar pic last week, I do mainly charcoal and/or pencil. I can't sit still long enough to do a big work like you did with the paint!!! Great work once again.

LOL! I don't think I can sit still long enough to do charcoal or pencil work! I do pencil on occasion, particularly for new ideas, but I abandon it asap to get to the paint. I enjoy the feeling of the brush and smearing paint around . I also quickly switched to an easel because I found I like standing to paint. (Also like to pretend I use more calories that way. )

Looks like you did a great job on that picture! Who is the model?
