How I Paint a Saluki Dog Portrait, Stage 5

Today I am working more on the chest fur, allowing the directions of my markes to follow the hair growth.  The collar is great to work on as there is a mix of textures to deal with - the embroidered collar with gold threads and the shiny surface of the beads.  Need to keep my pastel pencils sharp!
