Sully - A Work in Progress

A nice sunny day and it is supposed to reach above the freezing mark by this afternoon, so since I was not planning on going out today I decided that I would start on a portrait of Christine's dog Sully.

I went through the many photographs I have taken of him over the years and chose to do a full body drawing of him looking straight at you with his usual happy and alert expression on his face.














After doing a number of small sketches this is the one I liked the best and I have just started working on the outline drawing.

I will post this piece at a later date once I have finished the outline drawing, transferred it onto the paper and started to work on the graphite pencil drawing.
