I've been commissioned to paint a wonderful, faithful pet & companion of a certain fire breathing dragon..with heart I'm told :) The lovely Maja. I have a deep and genuine affection for dogs, my own sweet little Ginger the French Bulldog and of course Moo Moo as she is sometimes lovingly referred to. Feel free to post tips or words of encouragement as you watch step by step this process of "The Making of Moo Moo".

Step 4 the underpainting process....
Here I have used a process called under painting, I just like to give a warm undertone before I begin laying on the paint. Oh and almost forgot, for some of you who would like to know what paint I am using, I begin with Acrylic. It dries within 15 or 20 minutes. However, once I lay that down, then I can go over it with oil. I prefer using oils because I can blend them better and take my time and yes, wipe it off in case I make a mistake. Who Me??? Never! Ahem....yes, often make mistakes but I learn better this way! And a note, it must go in that order, Acrylic and then Oil over, never the other way around.
