Apollo, portrait of a young male Rottweiler
Artist
Adriana Mueller
Medium
Drawing - Pencil On Paper
Description
Black and white portrait of Apollo, a young Rottweiler. The detailed, realistic pencil drawing is dedicated to the face of the large dog with expressive eyes and a shiny coat. With fine lines and subtle shading, I have captured the structures of the black coat. I have also emphasized the dog's focused gaze and details of its muzzle to highlight his lifelike appearance.
My love of dogs inspired me to create a series of portraits in which I have drawn their faces in pencil on paper. I like to use a dense network of lines and subtle shades of grey to create the details and focus on the interplay of light and shadow. In addition, I find it particularly interesting to depict the typical facial features and poses of the dog and to highlight the fine structures of the fur. It is important to me to emphasise the expression in the eyes. My aim is to capture the character of our lovely companions on paper and to capture special moments.
