Watercolour Portrait painting is a delicate and expressive art form that blends controlled technique with fluid unpredictability.At its core, it relies on translucent washes of pigment suspended in water , allowing to build lifelike features through layers of subtle colour rather than opaque coverage.
Fine , controlled brushwork defines whiskers , nose texture, and the edges of the fur, while looser strokes or splashes are used in the background to contrast with the dog’s detailed features. Th result is a portrait that feels both realistic and gently expressive- celebrating the dog’s personality with the charm and delicacy of watercolour.
Light washes establish the base tones of the fur, whether golden , beige or shades of it. Gradually deepening the shadows and adding the mid-tones, using techniques such as wet-in wet blending to suggest softness and natural variation in the coat. Special attention is given to eyes , where careful layering and tiny highlights create a sense of depth and emotion.
The original painting is 13*18 cm or 5*7 inches of watercolor on cold press watercolor paper.
