Dingo
This dingo in central Australia actually came up to my hand and sniffed it to see if I had any food for him. Seeing that I didn’t he ran off and made himself comfortable in the shade of some tussocks. I took a few shots with the telelense as he was a fair way from me. From these photos I did this drawing. It is not the entire piece, just a detailed section.

Fantastic
Deborah Holman
I’m interested to know when you apply the white gouache?
Heidi Garner replied
Deborah…I apologize to you! Did I not reply to your question? The white gouache is applied at the very end, and only if I feel it needs it, to complete the piece. Sometimes the white pencil just isn’t white enough, and the gouache adds that extra ‘light’. Hope I’m not too late with this reply and I hope it helps :)
