My Dog

For the last year or so, I've fallen out of drawing animals. Drawing each hair takes so much time and I find people, well, more interesting. Animal's portraits cannot express the same emotion that a human can. While a dog may seem to smile, humans have different smiles for different emotions. While a dog may bare his teeth, humans use their entire faces to convey anger. Anyway, a couple days ago, I decided to take the plunge and go through the work of drawing my Golden Retriever. To my surprise, drawing each hair wasn't extremely tedious.
