Scottie at the Pond

Painting black dogs is always a challenge, since there is no black on my palette and they aren't "really" black!  I was looking at a black Scottie at a cafe the other day, and observed the blues, purples, and reds in his coat.  That prompted me to take on a Scottie for this 2nd challenge day!
