I promised myself I would paint a LOT while we were on the boat, I brought my paints, brushes, and dozens of flat canvases. Aside from a few workshops at the Studios of Key West, and a recent burst of artistic energy in April, I completely failed on that mission! I did manage to read a lot of art theory books and I did a LOT of sketches but nothing like what I had planned.
Now that I'm home I'm eager to continue on a series I started in April. Sort of a mash-up of sorts - Doggie Portraits 'Van Gogh' style. I'm calling the series "Gogh Dog Gogh" - catchy no?
Here's one of the first pieces I did, it's titled "Griffon with Sunflowers"
More paintings - a Bulldog, a Dachshund, and a Chow are near completion. I've got a great idea for a Standard Poodle with a Starry Night background; that should be fun. What Van Gogh doggies would you like to see?
Check out my new Facebook Page - A Brush With Humor. I'll be posting lots of art updates and some fun creative projects.
