"Daisy Blue" - In progress 1

A long-time client, Carolyn Martini (New Hope, PA) has commissioned a portrait as a surprise Christmas gift for her housemate, Tammy. For a long time Tammy had a unique concept for a Roeckl portrait of her Border Collie, Daisy Blue: the whole portrait in black & white with just Daisy's one blue eye in color.

Here is the first "in progress" picture. The drawing is laid out on grey Canson paper, my beloved grey Canson.
  


This is the 3rd portrait Carolyn has commissioned. Her first one, of her blue-eyed Luke, can be seen here on my Portraits site.
