“Trooper”

8" x 10" Watercolor pencil on drafting film

This somewhat "wind-blown"  border collie made a rather interesting subject. I decided to use background elements that would imply he was sitting on the welcome mat of a sunlit wooden porch. (An indoor background might have been somewhat incongruous with his tousled appearance!)

I used mostly Derwent Aquatones on this one, with some Prismacolors for touchups.
