This cute shetland sheepdog belongs to my sister, and this picture was actually also for her :)
I used photo as a reference.
Watercolour on the illustration board, 21 cm x 29 cm
About 10 hours, on and off :)
I am totally impressed with your command of the difficult watercolor medium! My mouth is hanging open , this is awesome! Besides all that, it is a really good painting of a Sheltie! Marvelous character captured!
