This week I have drawn a Golden Retriever Dog on hot press watercolor paper with colored pencils.

I wanted to draw this pet portrait with fewer layers, in less time and with less details than I usually would but I still wanted to achieve realism and a blend that would ensure that his fur would be soft and have depth.

In this video I demonstrate how you can achieve realism in your animal drawings by focusing on shapes, contrast and values rather than trying to add lots of detail into your art.
