2 cairn paintings I did this week.

[Mollyrocker]

I don't have a Cairn yet... I have a yellow Lab that is typically the subject of my paintings.

I lurk on the board all the time, post occasionally and I just love Cairns..hope to be an owner one day.

I used some photos as reference to try my hand at painting Cairns this week.

All you expert Cairn owners..Do you think they capture the Cairn? Comments appreciated.

the coat is not easy to render.

Oh my...those are wonderful.

[Dawnya]

VERY NICE!

[Scully'sMom]

Terrific job! You captured the "look" quite beautifully!

The top one reminds me of Jack Klugman in the odd couple. I can just imagine him playing poker.

[Guest Guest]

Beautiful paintings, yes you've done well.

[Tuff&Tippy]

You did a wonderful job; I especially like the bottom picture standing in the flowers. I wish I could paint I think it would be fun.

[Lesley]

Yes you captured the cutest little dog - especially the 2nd picture - I like the ears and mouth - are you available for portraits?

[TheScotts]

I wanna buy prints! Too cute!

[suedelu29]

I love the first pic. Wish you could paint my two like that Wish I had some of that talent.

[Mollyrocker]

thanks for your support! You have me motivated to do more!

[Darcy's Folks]

They are both lovely! I wish I had artistic talent like that.

Personally, (because the colors and expression appeal to me most) I would buy the Cairn in the flowers! So sweet!

[savannahsmom35]

Beautiful! I would love for someone to paint one of my Savannah! I would buy it in a heartbeat.

[Guest Darcy's Mom]

Very nice...you captured the Cairn look just right. Especially with the little pink tongue on the cairn in the flowers. Ok, anybody thinking calendars, portraits, etc.???

[hallswel]

Well done!

[Mollyrocker]

Wow! More support than I could have imagined. I guesss I have to get busy! A few of you seem to be interested in buying the watercolor I posted. It is very small, approx 3"x3".

Hope it is okay to make such an offering...let me know if it not appropriate.

Hate to be a sticky wicket - but to keep the spam down there's a simple 'no advertising' policy. If you have an appropriate web site, you can advertise it with text ads, such as are shown in the upper right corner.

And well done, indeed. I asked an illustrator I worked with once to draw me a Cairn so I could make a t-shirt transfer. He complained about the coat - "It's like trying to draw a Q-tip!"

[Mollyrocker]

sorry, bradl..thanks for making the rules clear.

[bradl]

No worries, and keep painting!
