    Stage one: Start with a sketch.


 
    Stage two: Add a light wash.


 
    Stage three: Begin adding tones from light to dark.


 
    Stage four: By adding some eye colour the dog
    begins to take on a personality.


 
    Stage five: As this is not a commission I am not trying
    to match the colours. The photo was over exposed so
    I am having to match the colour from memory.


 
    Stage six: From now on I begin to add detail as
    well as building up tone.


 
    Stage seven: Once I am happy with the tone I begin
    to add more and more detail. I would also begin
    adding highlights.


 
     Stage eight: This is my favourite stage. Adding more
    detail to create depth.


 
    Stage nine: More detail!


 
    Stage ten: Just about finished.


 
    The finished portrait.
