Pet Portrait: Buddy the Goldendoodle

Buddy-8x10-300 copy.jpg

I’ve drawn two Goldendoodles now, and neither have actually been golden. I’m starting to feel lied to… ;)

Original Photo: I ended up lightening him up a little bit to avoid the harsh shadows. Plus it’s always nice to be able to see their eyes!
