Ripley

colored pencil on tinted paper

For a while now I have been tinkering with the idea of doing pet portraits. but I needed to find a way to make them unique to my way doing things. I wanted something to add than just a somewhat stylized version of someone's pet. One of my friends has a cool little dog named Ripley, named after Sigourney Weaver's character in Alien. This was a no brainer. But, I do fear that I may have started way high and everything that comes after will be somewhat of a let down. I mean, c'mon, Alien! What are the chances that someone will name their dog Deckard or some such thing. They are out there, I know...

So, spread the word.
