Solo: The Weimaraner-first drops of color

Ok, so I got a good solid 30 minutes of painting before Meri started to randomly cry in her crib. So I quickly and as quietly as I could took 1 photo of the painting in progress and decided to leave my office before I pushed my luck any further. Meri quieted down, so there's no way I'm getting back in my office, sitting on my creaky chair and chancing waking her up even more. Oh to have an office that does not share a wall with her nursery....



Oh, and the painting measure 9"x12" and is on 300 lbs. hotpressed arches watercolor paper. Most of the paints are Winsor & Newton artists grade paints. If you look closely enough you can see that I've placed some dots of masking fluid on the dogs nose to preserve the white of the paper. I'll take that off later in the painting! I hope to be back with an update later tonight!
