For my second attempt at doing 30 paintings in 30 days, I decided that the subject matter would be animal portraits. When I did the challenge in September, I didn't have a theme.
I published posts in Facebook and Instagram and had such great feedback from people. I received some amazing dog photos ......and a goat, a pig, a few cats, a horse or two, some cows and a parrot named Roger!
My first painting is 16 x 16 inches on gallery wrapped canvas. The photo was submitted by Sandra Tschauner and the dog's name is Ulani. Thank you, Sandra!
I look forward to your comments. Please share and please send me any pet/animal portraits you would like to share.
