Commission - And Comparison


My second commission is now complete. This is Oscar, an old Boxer, and friend of another of my wife's coworkers. This is 10x10 on pastel board.

I originally had started this one before the triptych, but hit a roadblock when I just couldn't get him to look right on paper. I was trying to get a fur texture, but the paper didn't have enough grain to support more than a couple of layers, making him look like he was drawn in crayon.

Below is the unfinished paper version for comparison. I really love these boards!
