Doberman Watercolor

"Franklin on the Beach" (16"X12", Watercolor, SOLD)

This was a commission that I had to do from photos where the dog was inside. I had to put in the pale background because the owner didn't want to see anything that would distract from her dog. (In another painting, of a Collie, I was able to put in the Asian rug that I think added a lot to the painting - take a look for it)
I especially like the lanky paws (that break the 'picture frame') and the sheen of the coat that shows the health of this particularly regal dog. The droopy ear is part of the package.
