177 Corgi Puppy

Seven weeks since they were born, I am now painting the corgi puppies. One went to a new home last Saturday. I was a bit resistant to painting the puppies at first. I was worried that the paintings could easily become "too cute." But now that they are leaving, I am painting them.

This painting and the next few are painted on a wood panel rather than on stretched canvas. The quarter inch mahogany plywood comes from a wooden boat builder. It has a great smooth surface that captures all the brush strokes. What's great about it for you is that they are much easier to frame.

170 Rottweiler

When my wife, Theresa, was recently working with Burning Oak Studios recording a DVD on How to Paint the Family Dog, I helped her with a scene on how to and how not to photograph your dog. DaVinci our 106lb Rottweiler/lapdog was one of the stars. I stole one of Theresa's photos to use for this painting.

156 Fox Hound - Enough

I photographed this hound at an opening meet of a local fox hunt. He was sitting in front of a priest who was giving the blessing of the hounds. Looking at his expression I can see him thinking "Enough already, lets go!"

125 Portrait of Fox Hound

This portrait of a PennMaryDel Foxhound was based on photos I took on my excursion with Mr. Fred as noted in an earlier post. I also traveled with him at the hunt's opening meet. A bit different experience. More photographers than horses it seemed. And as far as listening for the hounds, there were about 80 other people having a good time with us...

92 German Shorthaired Pointer

German shorthaired Pointer out in the field. This girl is not our Shorthaired Gizmo. But I will tell you about him anyway. Gizmo is another family rescue dog, who was found at the pound. We don't know his early history, but he is deathly afraid of gunshots, fireworks etc. A bit schizo and of a rather sensitive personality, we try not to get him excited. Along with the Rottweiler, he is our guard dog, keeping UPS and mailman from invading our yard.

58 Blue Eyed Hound

Another painting in the Dog in a Golf Cart at the Horse show Series. I saw this fellow at the horse show in Culpepper VA. His owner told me that he is very popular with the photographers. She rescued him from the pound, though she had no intention of getting a dog until she saw him.

54 Foxhound

I began working on a project for a neary Hunt. I am currently doing research for the painting, which involves taking and looking at a lot of photos and traveling to the location. I really liked the expression on this fellow. He seems to be having a great time, running full out.

7. Back to the Dogs

This morning I joined a group of plein air painters from the Raleigh-Durham NC area in painting at the Fearrington. A beautiful sunny but not hot day. I completed paintings for this project along with the start of a larger garden scene. More about that later.

Today I've gone back to the dogs. Looking back, I seem to be painting a lot of dogs in golf carts. In golf carts at Horse shows. And a good number of Jack Russells in golf carts at horse shows. Maybe like this fellow, they are more relaxed in a golf cart. This scene was at the Duke Children's Classic Horse Show.

Here is Number One

It has started. Here is the first of the one hundred paintings that I will be completing and posting, one day at a time.

Since I will be donating a portion of the sales price of every dog painting sold to Danny and Ron's Rescue, it seemed like a good idea to start with...a dog painting.

It's a corgi. No suprise there. A Corgi, laying in the sun, watching you, as only a Corgi can.
