For pup lovers

This is Penny (the cat I posted before is Radar, named for his enormous ears). Penny is done in mixed medium: pastel, charcoal and watercolor.

1. Beautiful!

Superb job in rendering the hair -- that's always tough, especially with watercolor.

Here's a few of my pup pics. Never shared any art here before. They're rather old and I'm always embarrassed to post what I consider personal stuff on DU. Haven't painted for years now.

2. First: Thank you!

Second: Embarrassed? Your work is wonderful!!! You should be sharing it with everyone.

In all honesty, I do know how you feel. I'm 70, and it has only been the last 15 years that I've felt confident enough to show other people my passion. Once I did, people began buying without me putting anything up for sale. I'd bet money they'd buy your work too.

Please start painting again. If you don't owe it to the world, you definitely owe it to yourself. Don't keep that passion bottled up.

3. Like the color choices for the water-all paintings are wonderful.

4. Fantastic work

I don't think embarrassment fits at all here.

5. Quite good, love the expectant look

I tried mixing media and didn't do too well. It seems like it would be a challenge combining 3 different types without running into some blending side effects.

Great art, even if you think its not good enough! Let us look and enjoy.
Join the living and let your art please others, give life to those who can appreciate it.
