Vibrant and full of life, and the textured background adds an interesting take. Nicely done, Dawn. Hope your Dad and your sons recover fully soon.

Lovely lively painting, Brusho is so exciting to use, haven’t tried inktense yet but I think I will.

What a great dog portrait, love the splattering - looks like he's just had or about to have a headshake!

You have a lot on your plate at the moment. I’m sure your nursing is very much appreciated. I love the way you used brusho in this lovely portrait. Your friend will be thrilled to bits

Sorry for your burden Dawn. Hope things improve soon. This is very different and I love the way you have used the splattering and different textures. Your Beautiful painting will be very much appreciated.

8x 8 inches inktense and brusho on craft paper. I've struggled this week with a poorly dad and 2 poorly sons(not covid, but going to be a while before any of them are better). I am a member of a lovely Facebook page called Rainbow after the Storm, organised by a lovely lady called Nicky. This is a group for supporting each other through the pandemic. Buddy was her dog, so I painted this as a thank you gift.

I started painting in Jan 2016 after the death of my youngest sister. I found it great therapy and still do! I love experimenting with different techniques and media. I mainly work in pastel or oils for pet portraits, but I also enjoy doing ink portraits with the odd landscape thrown in for good…
