Mac (sketch)

This is Mac, one of the most beautiful dogs in the world. He lives here, in Italy, and has a pretty good life chasing the local wildlife and dozing in the sun.

I drew this as part of my Portray Your Pet project, using Tombow Mono 100 and Mitsu-bishi Hi-Uni pencils on Daler Rowney 160gsm cartridge paper.

    I just showed this to Mac….he now wants an agent, rump steak for dinner and an electric blanket in his bed….what have you started?
    Great picture.

    Stunning portrait, Ian! I have just recently started sketching more with graphite, and the Hi-Uni is my favorite line of pencils. So soft, smooth and quiet! I can sketch stealthily in public. 😉

      Thanks Tina. Ah yes, stealth sketching, an art in itself.
