Birth of the Dog

After painting landscapes, figures, still life, and animals in oils, I ventured into a series of dogs using acrylics in 2006. The quick drying paints allowed me to have a shipable finished painting quickly. It was a fun challenge to master a new medium and I soon developed a technique working in layers allowing a red underpainting to enrich the colors. I incorporated my graphic design experience into the compositions and by using outlines. After a year, I began to wrap the image around the sides of a deep canvas, creating a dimensional painting that needs no frame and looks cool on the wall or standing alone.
