Thank you for this. Iâve dabbled in painting and drawing, but my confidence level has been nonexistent. We just had to put our baby boy down at only a year and half. He developed cancer only took 3 weeks to go from healthy to gone. I really want to paint him so this is a great tutorial.
So sorry, Abby. đ
Please take care. Good luck with your precious pet portrait.
I wish his soul is at peace âźïž âïž. Take care of yourself abby

Your paintings remind me of Brad Sneed, illustrator of my favorite books when I was a child. Such warmth in your paintings!

Thank you for this. My boyfriend just found out his spinger spaniel has a brain tumor and just matter of weeks or months left. I recently got into painting and want to attempt to paint a portrait of Skip for him. This tutorial was great.
Aww Iâm so so sorry to hear this. What awful news for you and your boyfriend. Iâm happy to help you so you can make it a special one for him. I donât know what Iâll do when we lose our puppies. Never lost an animal close to me yet.
@@laurenelizabethanimalart3215 thank you. I'm not the best at drawing so that is my main struggle getting the sketch down. I may have someone sketch it for me đ
@@ambermarie608 "Aww, I'm so sorry to learn of your b/f's sad news about his beloved 'Skip'! ⊠Is Skip 'still' with us, or has he crossed over the rainbow bridge already??

Love & Peace 2u All,
Coughin Dog x x
Awesome đ I love how you added the wood floor.
Thank you đ
Good advice! I think the back paw could have used a little more love. Thanks for the video!
Thank you!
Step one: Know how to sketch the perfect outline for your dog. And make it perfect. Did I mention PERFECT??
Use graphite/tracing paper to start out with outlining if youâre a beginner đ
đșđđđđđș
Thank you!
Hi Lauren. You do awesome work. I just learned some things I have been doing wrong in my dog portraits. I have a question. If you are just painting the head and torso what do you do to finish off the bottom of the dog.?
Do you mean like adding flooring below the dog? Or the actually furry part of the dog? Not sure what part you're referring too.
Oh Lauren! Thank you so much for this tutorial! I wish I saw that when I was trying to paint my dog! Which brush did you use for the fur? Is it from that Benicci set? đđđđ
Masters touch and Benicci flat brushes and round brushes. đ yep! The flat brush is Benicci brand.
Thank you!
Of course!
This is so cool! Can you tell me on average how much time does a pet portrait take you?
Thank you so much. From start to finish, working on it for a few hours each day this took me 1-month. 16x20 inches.
love this video, I want to paint my boyfriend's dog for our anniversary, but I'm scared for the sketching part! do you have any tips for sketching a dog, particularly a boxer?
You know you actually don't need to paint in fur or all the details in the eyes or nose. Just the main shapes, position of the dog, and press lightly. The drawing doesn't have to be perfect! You should checkout my video called "how even beginners can create great pet portraits."
What recommendations do you have on the paint and brushes
Hello Lesly, yes I have great ones! Benicci brushes, it's very affordable and quality brush pack of I think 12 brushes. And then Masterstouch paint from hobby lobby OR chalkola acrylic paint. In my most recent video I posted two days ago, I have a chalkola discount on the full 64-count paint. However, my first choice is Masterstouch acrylics!
Can you please tell me what all colors you have use in this painting đ
Nice tutorials very easy to learn..please let me know. Which color you use in this painting
Sure, Phthalocyanine Blue, Raw Sienna, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna, White, Black, Lime Green, and Burnt Umber.
Huge help. I realize some of the original photos may be proprietary, but can you show us what image youâre painting from?
Sorry dear, I don't have the photo here, but I do have it with the full tutorial in my Online Animal Art Masterclass.
Do you use heavy body acrylics? I'm thinking of upgrading my paints but I'm not sure it's worth the price. I'm going to be doing pet portraits.
Yes I do!!! I use them often. Definitely a great investment!!!
Dommage qu'il n'y ai aucune traduction, c'est magnifique â€
Hi i was wondering how about black dogs ? which colour should i go for medium ? grey ?
I just posted a video on this. Check my latest video on fur!
What canvas is best for printing paintings
Hia Jan! You know I have painted on so many different types of canvases and made all kinds of prints from them. I donât think it really matters. If your painting looks good, so will your prints.
Lauren Elizabeth Fine Art thanks
1:20 bruh rough sketch!? Yours looks awesome!! Thatâs the problem with these all, how do you do the rough sketch đ đ„Č
Sketching has always challenged me but I try to draw when I cannot paint. Which is a lot with having babies. Lots of tiny sketches. great practice!
Hi Lauren, I just found your channel and love it ! I love sketching and painting but for some reason I can't get a Lab puppy can you help ? It is for a very good friend. Thank you, Sylvia
Hello Sylvia, I actually have a black lab tutorial in my Masterclass AND on my CZcams channel. Here's the one on this channel: czcams.com/video/2wYDczjQPwg/video.html
@@laurenelizabethanimalart3215 thank you so much for some reason I can't get the promotions right. Thank you again.
Can do this painting in paper using oil paint
i wouldnât recommend it. I would say use canvas with oils.
Canvas size
What if you dont have a detail brush...?
Well one detail brush is all you need! It doesnât have to be super small, but one round brush and one flat brush can get you started!
Buy one
I have been telling myself I cannot paint cats and dog yet because I find it a little too scary because of all the details but this video and steps have inspired me to try! Thank you Lauren â€ïžâ€ïž
Oh you just never know until you try Jessica!
Trop beau !!! Can you give the name of the colors used please ? Thank youđžđ«đ·
Sure. Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Umber, Phthalocyanine Blue, Black, White, and a bit of Cadmium Yellow.
@@laurenelizabethanimalart3215 Itâs very kind of youđž
you should start giving trazables
in your websites
I do â€ïž
MY PUPPY BEAT PARVO the horrible virus most common in puppy's and its deadly I made a painting of my dog and gave it to my vet they loved it
Aww wow that is such a blessing your puppy is healthy now. And I bet your vet was so blessed by your portrait! Well done
My half Yearly Exam
i cant even do the first step-
The drawing doesn't have to be perfect! Especially if you're not a fan of drawing. You can even trace the photo if you want.
Hey Lauren I *absolutely* love your paintings I really wish u agree to send me ur real time paintings to my email
