Meet Norman!
I'm trying not to leave so many ideas trapped in the pages of a notebook that no one will ever see. Seeing the finished product is so much more satisfying and makes my heart happy.
This project began as a doodle in my sketchbook, based on the hashtag assigned to this pooch.
The finished piece!
My muse (photo credit Michelle Braun), the sketch, and a work in progress.
Norman's portrait was created with a mix of digital techniques, traditional materials and mediocre puns – doing the brushwork in Photoshop and layering with watercolour textures.
