your Border Collies are wonderful! They are my favorite dog...so smart! I have a Border Collie in my portfolio, but not near as good as yours! I wanted to ask you, how do you keep your work from smearing when you work in pencil/graphite? Karen :-)

Artist Reply: Thank you so much Karen. Border Collies are wonderful aren't they? The trick to keep pencil/graphite work from smearing is to keep a clean sheet of paper under your drawing hand. In addition, it's a good idea to always wash your hands before working to minimize the oils in your skin. Since I'm right handed I always work from left to right as well after I get the eyes done - I always do eyes first whether it's a human or animal because the eyes really hold the soul of the piece.

Awesom painting, Jeanne! I love Shelties and Border Collies. They are simply the best dogs.

Artist Reply: Thanks Fran :-) They are the best dogs, aren't they? Of course, my opinion might be a little biased :-)
