To create the portrait I simply drew a picture of Farmyard Dog using a 2b pencil and then used water colours to paint him. Once dry, I outlined him using a fine liner.
It was the first time I had ever used water colours and while I could use a little more practice with them, I think it was a fairly good effort for my first attempt:
