    Dingo cub

    I very nearly gave up on this one. There always seems (to me) to be an 'ugly' stage where it seems it's not going to work - until it does!

    June.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    A dingette! Very cute. . . in an outback sort of way.

    Like MacPloos says, we've all been to that place where a painting we're working on looks like it's a disaster. But written into the system is one of the beauties of digital painting: You have the [UNDO] button and layers that can be deleted and adjusted. So we can keep slapping paint around until the cows come home and it can still look fresh as a baby dingo.

    In a manner of speaking, we can tame even the wildest beasts till we have them eating out of our hands.

    True, digital dose afford us more opportunities to try and get things right but sometimes it can be better to just abandon a painting and come at it fresh sometime later, from a new direction.
    The trick is to know when perseverance is the answer or to start again, fresh…

    My hard drive is littered with abandoned paintings!
    Some I will no doubt revisit at some time others probably not. But even with those now truly dead ones, I learnt things in attempting them, so no painting is ever really a wast of time.

    Yeah! I've heard mention before about the ugly stage and the next one I post truly was ugly! Even evil looking!

    Thanks Digital Seed - I really enjoy painting animals.

    PS. I see you are in Wales - I have visited and loved it. My DNA results tell me that I am 4% Welsh. It must be from my maiden name - Griffiths.

    I live on the coast not far from Three cliffs bay. I really can’t wait to visit the place again and try to capture its beauty in ArtRage.
    Have to wait for lockdown to finish again first but it’s not going anywhere
