Rae Place



This is looking close to being done


Rae Place

I've stared to paint some living things in, plants so far


Ray Place in Woolloomooloo, the ground and a bit more


I'm starting a couple of Woolloomooloo landscapes. This is a start on a view from McElhone St looking at the cliff embankment Brougham St is on top of. 

I might  do a bit more to this later today, though the light is much different, high cloud has flattened it out and obliterated shadows

Cassie



Finished or thereabouts. The lighting on the dog coming from a different direction than the background but it doesn't seem to matter too much


Just some highlights to do - bit of light on fur and leaves


Cassie the Giant Schnauzer - I just have to paint her fur the right colour




It's time to start painting in the real colours



 With the background starting to emerge, in negative!




 Beginning of a portrait of Cassie, a giant schnauzer. 


The first bit of painting with some Port Macquarie park and beach photos to muck around with the horizon without actually painting it in yet


When I first got some photos of Cassie I did this drawing This is probably the pose I'll use. She's a big dog with lots of black curls that are a bit hard to make out in photography so I'll work a bit more at drawing before I make a start on the painting. For now I'll keep putting updates in this post
