Jack

8x10
Oil on masonite panel
Well, I continue to use the Different Strokes from Different Folks blog to gather ideas. This is a previous post of Karin's dog Jack. I think this has inspired me to paint my brother's Boxer, Ceasar. He loves to pose for photos!

  1. Jeran, I am so impressed! I love the quick brush strokes, the warm brown tones, and the bold highlights! I have got to start painting again, dental school has killed my motivation!
    Anyways, keep up the good work, I love it!

  2. Thanks so much! You should check out the Different Strokes blog...you have two weeks to complete the painting...plus it really motivates you when you see other people's work.

  3. Very nicely done, Jeran. The expression on the dogs face is very real... curious, watchful. Really like your handling of the fabric, too.
