Hi Simon-- Thanks! Yeah, that pattern in the sofa was a little intimidating initially. . . wanted to downplay it a bit but thought the contrast between him all in solids against the relative 'busyness' of the couch and pillows set him off nicely. Focussing in on the texture and the way the light hits the fabric, rather than the pattern itself helped to keep it manageable.
Janet and Marina -- thank you both!
Alex--Thanks for all the compliments! He's already got an older sister to share that puppy with, so it's not lacking for attention! (guess I should say I painted the sister's portrait back in 2004--the figure skater)
