Dog Series: No. 1 "Pug"

I've enjoyed abstract expressionism, classical portraiture, and contemporary satire. So it's about time I did doggie paintings. Here's my first finished piece (but 6th or so attempt):

This was a very simple ink drawing with a wash of watercolor on Eames Vellum cover paper. I really like the simplicity and silliness of this sweet dog. The original doggie is really a million times cuter with its sad little eyes, but here's my attempt to recreate the cute.

The original piece is here on ebay.
