Speedpaint: Sulyka Cute'n'Cool (60 min)

Photoshop, Intuos, 60 min

I've never painted my dog, because she's so difficult to paint... nothing but white fluff and coal black button eyes... So here's a speedpaint I finally did, as I plan to use this as a starting point for a bigger painting. 

Her kennel name is Sulyka Cute'n'Cool, which is shortened as "CC" for her name. I prefer to stylize it as Cici. She's a bichon frise, she'll be 8 this spring. I've had her for about two and a half years, her earlier life was as a show dog. She won a lot of titles, had lots of beautiful puppies, and then "retired" from that life to live alone with me. She's my first dog, and she's my best friend.
