All About Dog Portraits

Recently, a picture of a graduate from the guide dogs school for the blind was displayed

proudly on the walls of the school but those who worked there still maintained their stand when it comes to not favoring any single student. One lady from Denver, Colorado has been working with Jeannie the golden retriever that is in the portrait.

Jeannie was painted by an artist who now has lost her sense of sight. Dealing with blindness and the other events in her life became much easier when she was able to spend some time painting.

At the time when her eyesight was still okay, she loved to paint scenes from the Indian life in Colorado, New Mexico, and Arizona. You might be wondering if she still paints.

In this case, she gathers all of her ideas and then she paints. She does not need to see to paint for she gets ideas clearly in her head when she thinks.

Damaging her painting surfaces were the pins that she began to use in creating outlines of the images she wanted to paint. When she paints, she no longer has to make use of these things.

When she painted Jeannie, she began by making a line drawing with a crayon. You are probably thinking about how she was able to capture Jeannie's likeness when she could not see her.

Actually, the lady that Jeannie was given to was this artist and the instructor at the school described how Jeannie looked when she was transferred to her care. She says the instructor described to her that Jeannie was as warm as the setting sun with a little brown added, a golden bronze. She smells the pigments to tell them apart and she only makes use of three colors at a time whenever she paints.

She painted Jeannie with a small brush but when it comes to her tail, it looks proud and fluffy and this is because she painted it with her finger. She paints a lot of things and even without her sense of sight, she can tell if they look good or not, I guess it is simply all in the gut when it comes to this artist. When it comes to the painting of Jeannie, she said that Jeannie growled in approval.

This was a portrait that was magnificent. Even with a disability, the guide dogs school for the blind taught her how live can be lived productively.

More than 87 per cent of the school's alumni are gainfully employed at jobs that range from newspaper delivery to hair styling. This is a non profit organization which operates mostly on volunteer contributions, they incur an expense of $1700 per man and dog team but the students are not asked to pay for anything.
