My First Video: How to Draw a Dog with Pastel
I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve just uploaded my very first YouTube video, how to draw a dog with the pastel! It’s a time-lapse of me creating a pastel dog portrait, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with you.
The model of this portrait is a stunning German Shepherd-Chow Chow mix, a dog with a truly unique appearance. His orangish-brown fur has such a rich, warm hue, making the drawing process both challenging and enjoyable. What stood out to me the most were his striking amber-coloured eyes, radiating calmness and intelligence. As I worked, I tried to capture not just his physical features but also his personality—his serene focus on his owner, unwavering even when surrounded by distractions.
In this video, I’ve condensed the hours of work into a captivating time-lapse. From initial sketching to layering the vibrant pastel colours, all the way to the finishing touches that bring the portrait to life. Whether you’re a fellow artist looking for inspiration or simply someone who loves dogs, I hope you find it as enjoyable to watch as it was to create.
This project was a labour of love, and sharing it with the world feels like the beginning of something special. I plan to upload more content like this, so if you enjoy the video, don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to my channel. Your support means the world to me as I embark on this creative journey.
Let me know what you think of the portrait and the video. Do you have any tips, feedback, or ideas for future content? I’d love to hear from you in the comments section below or directly on the video.
Thank you for watching, and stay tuned for more!
Portraits of Wildlife
Animal illustrations are my favorite theme. I love drawing wildlife portraits—they’re amazing subjects, and lemurs are a top choice.
“Lemurs are not pets!” You can often see this slogan in events or organizations dedicated to lemur conservation. It’s true—lemurs are wild animals and are absolutely not suitable as pets. Each year, the last Friday of October is celebrated as World Lemur Day. In 2023, I was honoured to be invited by the Lemur Conservation Network to design the logo for World Lemur Day, and I was one of the host artists creating a series of Lemur illustrations for their Art Challenge.For this series, I used a variety of mediums such as coloured pencils, oil pastels, and fine liners. The star of my artwork was the crowned lemur. I chose this species because of its clear gender differences, which is unusual in lemurs. Most lemurs don’t show obvious visual differences between males and females, but in crowned lemurs, males have a black crown and orange face, while females have an orange crown. Their distinctive look made the illustrations more interesting. They are one of the smaller species of lemurs and have an adorable appearance!

Crowned Lemur Mom & Baby Over 100 species of lemurs have been discovered, and new species are still being found. One of the largest among them is the Black and White Ruffed Lemur. They have a striking appearance and are also known as the “singers” of the lemur family, often making loud, resonant calls.
