I love this picture. I first made a white background layer to put everything on. The next layer I created was the outline layer, After that I was able to paint. I used the paint, smudge, burn and pencil tool to create the puppy. Same with the background I used the paint brush and smudge tool. I really wanted something that was going to be cute and made you want to melt. I got the shadows from using darker colors and by using the smudge tool. it allows the ears and head pop up.
