Wasnt Me .. take 2


 Wasnt Me - take 2

Its funny you finish a work of art and think yeap Im happy with that.. then you photograph it and take a look at it again from the photograph....

Thats when you see glaring errors that you just cant live with.. Wasnt Me has been through that process.. I just wasnt happy with him and realised that the image I was working from had a twist in his little face.

We its all well and good to be true to the image your working from but at times you have to use your artistic nouce and change things..   So thats just what Ive done with this little fellow.

Ive adjusted his face and balanced it out so now he doesnt look like its twisted.

So meet Wasnt Me take 2.. as an artist you should never be scared to admit your not happy with a work but in saying this you must also be prepared to adjust what your not happy with.

I started this piece a couple of years ago and for what ever reason I didn t get back to complete it .. with an upcoming Puppy's exhibition fast approaching..

It gave me the push to dig this little fellow out and complete  him..  Loved the way t he puppy has curled up to sleep with his little cement bunny pal.

I love the expressions on pugs faces.. they always look as if they want to have a good old fashioned chin wag with you.

Roxy is a commissioned immortal portrait.. thank you Caron for allowing me to create this special memory of your beloved pooch for you...
