I have to say that the complexity of Link’s coat intimidated me. As an Australian Cattle Dog, there are so many hairs of different colors all mottled in there together, that I just stared at the photo for a while. This is a perfect exercise of using oils to layer. And layer, and layer, and layer…
Once the black dries a bit, I can finish up with the longer and tuftier hairs in and under the ears, on the side of the cheek, etc.
