ArtBARK! Contest Entry

Last week I worked on an entry for the ArtBARK! Contest and raffle which is sponsored by Bone Adventure and Stray Dog Arts. I decided to draw Eddie, a Catahoula Leopard dog that we fostered a few years back!

This is the finished drawing;

It was quite a challenge to draw all the fur and took about two and a half days to finish! I used Blick studio graphite pencils, Copic markers and a white gel pen for this piece. :)

Here's a work in progress shot;

Tonight I'm going to a gallery opening to see it hung along with all of the other entries and the work of Jessie Marianiello of Stray Dog Arts! I'm really excited to see all of the entries, there will be a lot of good artwork there!
