Lauren is another excellent pet portrait artist with a slant more to the abstract than the realist. Her speciality is colour mixing and how abstract colours can be added to pet portraits to give them a visual zing. She runs online courses in her techniques and has a wide range of downloadable materials available from her website www.laurenelizabethanimalart.com/ and YouTube channel www.youtube.com/@laurenelizabethanimalart3215 .
I am very grateful to Lauren for allowing me to use some of her material with this Paint By Numbers Paint Your Pet project. The material I am using includes her colour mixing charts, and her advice on how to use colour to turn your realist pet portrait into an abstract one.
