Paint
Finalprogress photos1. For this project I was given the task of taking an animal (preferably one with fur) and paint them. The goal was to use the media of oil pain to portray the texture of the fur ( or scales) and bring emotion in a face that isn't human. For this project I choose to do my puppy dog Cocoa though we call her poochie. It was important to not only portray a good copy of fur but to also mimic the direction in which the fur is growing. Making the animal have a soul is also important to show. This can be portrayed through the details in the eyes. more specifically the pupal.
2. I felt that the most important technique that contributed to the paintings aesthetic was layering. As shown through the progress photos I made sure to start of with dark colors for the fur and work my way up to the lights as I add more detail. This was not only important n the fur but in the eyes as well, more specifically when adding the glossy finish or reflective highlights. 3. I made sure to use the layering technique the most. This was important when creating detail to give a more realistic feel. This was also the major difference between the last in progress photo and the finish product. 4. I felt that my overall growth was definity shown through this project. Mostly because of the amount of detail put into it. normally I would go for a more cartoonish look with a hint of realistic flare but I almost felt like this piece could and would come alive. I felt that I also improved as far as proportions and blending making sure that the puppy fit the canvas and each part of her body was proportionate to each other. 5. I absolutely love this painting not only for craftsmanship but model that I choose to paint for it as well.
