My warmest friend is my dog who we brought for our son who has been asking since he was able to talk! She sleeps on our bed and is the best hot water bottle in the world. Fortunate for me then that today’s 64 million artist January challenge is to create a picture of your warmest friend!

Don’t make drawing a barrier to creating art.
In this this tutorial I will show you how to easily create a portrait of your pet using collage, ink and gouache paint. You don’t even need to be good at drawing! I am going to use a photo as my starting point.
I’m using children’s sugar paper as my base material. I’m going to use a warm yellow background as this is a warm task! You can use any coloured paper or magazines. Text works really well.
