POPPY The Dalmation
POPPY The Dalmation Cross
12” x 12” Oil on board
I am told that when I was little I had a little knitted dog toy...an old lady bent down to me in my pushchair and said:
“Is that your spotty dog”?
“NO, I replied, IT’S DALMATION”
So I have a special affinity with this little lady, I’d love to still have that toy, and this painting! There are some you just don’t want to give away!
I will be teaching a workshop on 1 November @micklemsfarmcreativeworkshops called ‘Pet Portraits with Personailty’. Working ‘alla prima’ in oil paint we will look at ways of applying the paint in a dynamic and interesting way: focusing on colour, brushwork and composition.

Working ‘alla prima’ in oil paint we will focus on leaving bits of our under-painting peeking through.
