Painting eyes...a progression (but not complete!)

This is about 70% complete.  However, when painting anything with eyes, I always paint the eyes to put soul into the painting before I complete.  Then I really bond with the subject and which seems to make completing the painting much simpler!

Bulldog...almost complete.

This guy will be available at the Ottumwa  "Created in Iowa" show October 27 & 28th....

at the Bridge View Civic Center.
