OLIVE the Shitzu-Pug cross
8” x 8” oil on board
Isn’t this little lady just as cute as a button! I was really excited to paint the lemon yellow door of the ‘Citroen 2cv’ as well - that chrome wing mirror makes it for me! I wanted to find a nice ‘jazzy’ colour to contrast with the yellow so used my trusty ‘COLOR INDEX’ book. It has loads of suggestions for palettes and I chose the peacock blue as a base colour to have peaking through. You might spot as well that I have used my ‘artistic license’ to move Olive slightly to the right to get her to ‘centre stage’.
