VIDEO: Painting Silky Fur

Hello my Moons,

Here is a video showing my process for painting silky fur!  You can find an overview fur painting video I did in the past here  You can also find out how I created that background textures for this piece in this video here 

The reference for the dog came from my good friend Laura Garabedian who is also an amazing artist! 

Tools

Surfaces: Acid free book board with one coat of Daniel Smith Titanium White watercolor ground and a topcoat of QoR watercolor ground.  Additional Daniel Smith ground was added for texture around the  dog.
