Cute Little Rocky

A few weeks ago we saw a cute little Black and Tan Coonhound pup walking by The Studio and we asked his dad to stop so we could all pet him and get a photo to paint.  The kids loved him.  Well we got around to painting his portrait this week.  Look at what a great job the kids did with their portraits of Rocky.

Team Building with Dog Staff

Yesterday we had so much fun working with the Humane Society of Warren County dog team staff creating a beautiful work of art that they will hang in their shelter.  The team building exercise had them painting 9 canvases that will be connected and delivered to them soon.  They did a marvelous job on this fun painting of pups!  Great work everyone.  Remember that we did this exercise with the cat staff a few years ago.  You can see that painting here.

Pawcasso

The Studio is sponsoring a really fun event for the Humane Society of Warren County – PAWCASSO.  When Lavenda Denney approached me last year about her idea for this project she knew she had me at art and rescue pets.  She wanted to have the available animals at the shelter “paint” works of art to sell at a show at the arts council.  I loved the idea and agreed to sponsor it right away but also suggested we take it a little further by offering private lessons for people who already have pets.  So The Studio provided 10 sessions to people who would pre-purchase a large (18″ x 24″) painting with their pets. The pets had a private lesson with me and we created the large work of art.  And it’s no surprise that those sold out.  We have had so much fun with this project.  And tonight is the reception from 6-9 pm at The Blue Ridge Arts Council at 405 E Main St.  You don’t want to miss it! You have to see this art and these wonderful small works are for sale.  Please come.  Here are some of the painters at their session.  LOL!
