I think you did great. Your pup actually looks like your pup, which shows your artistic talent.

He's so cute and you did a great job capturing his likeness. I want to do my dog but she's a Maltese and I would have to use shades of gray in the white for detail; she would then look like she has a dirty face. Which is funny because I'm all the time cleaning her face.

QM. maniac quilter, and all -- thank you for the very good tips. I will definitely use them, and check out quilty.

Joyce888 - could you maybe use different shades of white, ivory, cream? (what a challenge that would be ---)
Re Maltese, my daughter has a huge bruiser of a mutt, very dark brown everything (yet a sensitive soul!) and she sent to get his doggy DNA done - he had no lab, as we expected, but pit/rottweiler/something else, and "one of his grandmothers was Maltese" - that gave us a big laugh.

Love your "pup". I think that you captured him perfectly.

Love your attitude! I have never tried to do a portrait, you are a courageous lady; and it does look like Larry!
