*stare* DRY ERASE MARKERS?!

My reaction exactly. Holy shit.

wow, that's inhumanly good, considering the medium. Cute doggy. ~scritch scritch~

Dogs are awesome.
I might be biased.

Also this is really awesome. Seriously dry erase markers? Wow.

No, you're not biased, dogs are awesome!

I think we'll all say the same thing -- dry erase markers??!?!??!??!



Truly you are an art Deity.

OK ok, I used white pencil too!

*gigglesnort*

It's stunning work, no matter what medium -- how many co-workers leaned over during it's creation?

None! I am alone in the copy center :)

A scruffy black dog, apparently!

DUDE with the dry erase markers; I'm with everyone here.

You captured the doggy essence of this guy quite well. Looks like a collie or border collie, or cross thereof. I love colliethings, but as host to three of them, I am more than a little biased.

I am not sure but I think it might have shepherd too.

That makes sense!

Floppy ears and a floofy tail! D'awww.

Awww, what an adorable pup, looks like a dog my puppyface would have fun romping with. Your skills with dry erase markers are mind boggling :3

I also used a white pencil...

That doesn't make it any less impressive, it's a great use of materials.

Very nice. A real, dog-sized dog.

It's the kind I like.

All we have is red, blue and a dieing black thats all fuzzy on the end o.O Dry erase markers are nuts

It's what makes the challenge.

Nice image - very nice technique!

Thanks :)

That is the Right Sort Of Dog. And congratulations on achieving such a pretty result with a surely uncooperative medium!

You should be drawing really slick European-style comics with your crazy skilz

oh so cute!

Cool scruffy puppy. ^_^

This dog oddly looks similar to Nambroth's dog who has sadly passed away today. This art is amazing, and even more amazing considering what you did it with!

I noticed that after I put it up that it looked like hers, poor thing.

dry erase markers? That's just incredible...

V.

mmm nice lighting on this. especially in the face.

And just how long did it take to come down from the clouds when you were done?

Serious good "painting".

Thank you for actually providing an example of something that I have tried to drill into peoples heads for years. It is not the materials it is the skills, the knowledge, and the commitment to learn that make an artist.

I deal with this problem everyday at my day job in a art supply store. People who are convinced that if just buy the right brush. Use a certain brand of paper. Change their brand of paint all their problems will go away and the clouds will part; angel will sing and they'll instantly be able to create masterpieces and fart rainbows! Yes materials can be an important part in creating great art, but it is a distant second to real knowledge! Nice piece.

Thank you :) I have always believed that art is not about materials but what you do with them. Sidewalk chalk, fingerpaints, sand, it can all be glorious.

I know that this comment is a little late but I had only recently come across you and your work.
This piece is amazing! Not only is it a fantastic picture but you did it in something it isn't typically something others would consider using.
Very well done!

/bow
Glad you like it :)

Whoa. Caught this in somebody's faves, and it stood out because this is a dead ringer for my dog, right down to the ear. He's a long haired German Shepherd, and he hurt one of his ears last year so it no longer stands up.

And seeing it full sized really gives me an appreciation for it. Dry erase marker? Seriously? Dang, maybe I've been using the wrong kind of marker.

Really? This is just like your dog? Man, I want a pooch like that myself!

Yep, 'cept my boy is kinda old. So he's got less brown on his face, and more gray. XD

awww :)

This dog IRL minus the floppy ear XD http://s89.photobucket.com/albums/k218/Beeejaay/?action=view&current=P1020837.flv

Hey, you are right!

BEAUTIFUL!

Thank you:)

Dry erase markers?! Hooow? Holy shit, that's amazing!!
And that's such an adorable doggy, too!! x3

awwww, thanks :)
