Latest Pet Commission
Hey everybody. Today I would like to share my latest commissioned portrait. Most of the pets I get commissioned to paint are highly stylized, but this time the client wanted something less embellished, which was perfect because the style I generally paint these pet portraits works best on large canvases.
This was an 8" by 10" Oil painting and the first time I have used linseed oil on a commission so I figured, "What the hell, I'm trying new things so why not do it live on Facebook for the world to see me potentially fail?" It only took about an hour to realize that, paint mixing is much easier and oil paint can be applied effortlessly with a painting medium. Who knew?
I'm still not sure how I feel about the shininess in regards to photographing the artwork, but it seemed like it took me about half the time to paint with the linseed oil. So, I might do that again. I hope you enjoy the art, and let me know if you would like to see more posts like this.
