|| I Picked this photo because I am what I think still a kid that loves to hunt and I love dogs and ducks. The difficulties I think that I will have is the grass he is standing on and the trees behind him, his coat and his hat, that is what I think will be the hardest to do in this painting.the hardest part of the painting was his coat, his coat took me the longest, but I could have spent more time on it and his boots. i solved those problems by really looking at the art i looked at in color and black and white to get the different colors in his coat. I really like the dog and how it turned out I think that is the best part of the whole painting.

I plan on putting the ocean behind my figure with my figure standing on a rock with the sun setting behind the figure. I picked the sunset because I think sunsets are cool and she was standing in a good position. The problems I had with this project is her hair because her head wasn't round enough so I had to fix that, and the other problem was the lights and the darks, like what color to put it as and what not. The solutions was to make mrs. Ruggles head more round so I had to put more hair around the outline of her head. She helped me a little bit with the lights and the darks. I am happy with this project because I think I did a good job and I like it and that is all that matters.
