What I like most about this piece is the harmony of colour and the reddish brown offset against the blue background. It brings such a warm but cool feel to the painting at the same time and doesn't feel forced or unnatural, i.e. when two elements are mashed together. The eye is particularly awesome (awesome is good terminology P for its multilayer lighting and how 'alive' it appears. I think sometimes eye detail is something people miss out on when its the thing we tend to notice about a subject the most as they are 'the window to the soul' as it were.

The soft, dense coat against the rubbery nose and tongue texture is good attention to detail as it helps create a believable animal on canvas and not something made upย of one material. I think the only thing that bothers me slightly is the foreshortened leg as it just looks off somehow but overall great job, I really like it .

I hope that made sense, I know what I mean in my head but writing it down is just bleh hah.

Thank you for such an in depth view of my work, it is really appreciated. This was such a classic image I had to paint it. I still cannot believe it was 14 years ago

You are most welcome. Wow time flies and you've come a long way and only improved from there from what I've seen in your gallery. Really impressive work from someone who has obviously put the hard work in, look forward to seeing future pieces

You did such a great job with the fur! I also love that you brought the background color into the subject.

This may have been done a long time ago but I really like the overall tone of the piece. Thank you

Nice wet nose. That is a healthy dog. Painting isn't too bad either.
