Self Portrait

Hello and welcome to the world of Arts & Dogs! My favourite subject are dogs. Each dog has it's own personality and it's a great pleasure to me to explore the different characters. I'm painting and drawing since 30 thirty years now and I prefer a naturalistic style. The details and fine little things that creates impression of a "dogs face" are in the middle of my focus. Very carefully I try to interpretate with colours and lines. It's not just photorealism that I'm interested in, I would like to show the "real" dog behind the photo. NEW!!: Arts & Faces !! Please see www.arts-and-faces.de Best Regards Nicole
