Each pet portrait I do I’m varying my approach slightly in the hope of creating some ‘happy accidents’. I hope to accumulate knowledge on how best to: do the underpainting, the technique for long v short haired animals, how to convey character traits, which backgrounds work best with different coloured animals, where to add unusual bits of colour, where to scratch out details, which brushes to use when and where... so much to explore and experiment with!
