I took a class several years ago to paint wildlife and it really focused on eyes of birds, fox, etc. The class paid off for me when I painted this puppy's eyes. The black in this painting was made with combinations of U.M. Blue, Cobalt and Burnt Sienna.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07382737164924503037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3734923695875024838.post-62437434925778575282010-09-09T14:57:36.778-07:002010-09-09T14:57:36.778-07:00I love the eyes.
