Hello colleagues, I want to present my newest painting, which I call the dog's smile, because I have never painted a happier dog than this one, as you can see and you can feel the vibration. I hope so because I tried to convey the greatest happiness possible in this painting, since it is in honor of a puppy who is no longer with us, and the client asked me to make a painting in honor and memory of this dog, but I wanted to find the smileiest photo that I have so that I could recreate the happiness in the puppy's eyes and from the painting itself, it would not feel like that, but rather a happy dog that has always been in this world to give happiness to its owner.
- The first step of the painting is to make the background like today's version with the client, to understand both the photos and the variation of backgrounds themselves because he first wanted a photo that I thought wouldn't work. Well, in general, things that are completely normal in my industry, but still, one has to be patient.
Thank God for inventing winged Louie because in the face of such misunderstandings where you can't understand what you're painting after I'm a brave one, I'll upload a later stage that may not be photographed because it was extremely difficult for me to draw something you see. At 10 km, the artists who do custom paintings will understand, but we're not talking about that. Here we're talking about the fact that acrylic Louie are a great and divine state of the art because they have extremely deep coverage. And whatever a person paints, it can always be fixed, so this is the first stage where I paint the background.
2.The second stage of the creative process is to make the most important object for drawing and this is the puppy that I will recreate with the most beautiful smile and life in its eyes.
I make the base of the puppy by calculating with the brush where exactly it will stand in perspective in the background of the picture I put the first shades of gray and white because the puppy is a breed of Alabai, a large dog, I don't know, anyone who knows him will understand that these are great dogs but extremely fierce Sometimes maybe one of the strongest dogs is this Alabai, a Central Asian breed that I respect very much Because I like large breeds of dogs and you What dogs do you like
Here I want to show you a photo of the puppy itself that was admitted to the hospital for which I wanted to remove this moment from the photo as it is sick and attached as you can see and recreate a smiling and happy healthy puppy that is in the cherry orchard of its owner and as you can see I am a magician and I combine several things into one as I want to express absolutely all the love that a person feels for their animal the soul of the animal itself and of course the environment in which it grew up in love and peace
3.The third step is after I shape where exactly you are in perspective, each part of the painting itself, I start to shape the puppy's head, the paws and everything that can depict its essence, as I start to measure where its eyes are, where its nose is, and each part, the size of its face. This is extremely important because when you make a face, whether it's a person's or an animal's, you have to capture its soul, in fact, and if you don't capture it, the person you're painting for won't be happy, and that's why sitting as an artist is not so easy, believe me, not only to stand and paint, but still .
However, when you achieve the true state of mind of the puppy you are painting and the person you are painting for sees it and truly feels the connection between him and the painting, this is the highest satisfaction you can achieve after giving a painting to someone because your heart is filled with satisfaction from what you have achieved for yourself as well as for people.
4.It's already the fourth step in which we start to catch the features of the puppy itself, we start with the shine in the eyes as well as the colors that make it look more and more alive. For example, I love the realistic style because the more you touch a painting, the more it comes alive and for me it is extremely important, but we still have to be careful because sometimes too much and in excess and maybe it strains the eye while you are looking at the painting itself.
5.Fifth, in which after I have depicted the dog's features, I begin to shape the background around it, which, as you emphasize, is based on my imagination. Here, the goal was to depict a cherry blossom garden in which the puppy has grown from a baby, and my goal was to recreate absolutely everything that this Client loves in one painting so that when he looks at it, he can feel true awe and love. The painting is 50 by 60 cm in size and is made with professional acrylic paints on canvas with a double wooden frame for direct hanging, not on the wall.
I'm interested in what you feel when you see this painting because, for example, when I analyze a given work, I feel the inner world of the artist who created it, and for me it's extremely important what message my paintings convey to people, and especially to those for whom I paint.Have I managed to recreate a truly happy dog who lives in his truly loving environment where the cherry blossoms are blooming, everyone is singing, and happiness is simply in his eyes and it is visible? And do you see it?
It is very important in my opinion that you feel real satisfaction from what you are drawing, even if sometimes there are challenges, this is completely understandable, especially when we are tackling something we do not understand, but this should not scare us, because I, for example, am an artist who never stops challenging myself with new styles, new techniques, new drawing films, and to be honest, I am so scared that I am so unmoved, so my advice to you is never stop opening up, and no matter how much you do not understand a given piece of art, it always makes sense and always conveys a message to the world. I hope that with my beautiful
I wish you lots of creativity and inspiration.
