Doggy Paintings

 

3 dogs are better than one ...

Right?  Friends of mine comissioned me to do portraits of their dogs - the one they keep now and the ones who have already passed away. Like a little family pet gallery for the house -  fun project which i had never done before. These 3 characters are no "fancy" dogs like the puggies in the post below, but mixed breeds, one of them being picked up on a beach in portugal.  Below, you see a photo of Mina, the middle dog. Wich one of these is your favorite?

Friday Art: Doggy painting

I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own.
Jackson Pollock 

This is a quote that shows much about the spirit of collaborative art. One has to trust the other, to do the right thing - not always easy, but full of discovereies and surprises. This weekend, i'll participate in open studio event at my friends house. That friend i do collaborative art with from time to time - Andrea. Among the things shown will be the dogy-painting you see above.  It's foggy fall weather today and i feel like having a rest, cook soup, bake apple-pie ... but all this will have to wait until sunday.  Hope you're all have a cozy time - will come round for tea!
