Duke the Yellow Lab

30 December, 2007 Filed in: Dogs
This is a portrait I painted earlier this month for my dog portrait show at the Pride and Pedigree gallery:
Yellow Lab Dog Portrait by Kathryn Beals
This is Duke, a golden lab in the family. He was the first dog I ever painted and I decided to paint him again for my show since he has such great coloring.

Happy New Year!
