Welcome to Painting a Dog a Day

Since October 2006 I've been a daily painter, creating a new pet portrait at least 5 times per week. At first the paintings were mostly dogs, but over the years I've allowed a transgression here and there, and expanded my offerings to include a variety of animals and pets. And yes, I accept commissions! Please join the Painting a Dog a Day community - Sign up using the links at the left to receive the dailies via email or follow the blog with a feed. I post additional info, including in-process jpgs and other related information, on the studio Facebook page as well.

The links above will help navigate through workshops, the commission process, and other options.

Thank you
so much for your continued support of my artwork.

Dog-a-Day Painting #650 - HAH!!

"Hah! (Arly)," 6" square, commissioned pet portrait, depicting a mixed breed dog in acrylic on canvasboard. (And  yes, Arly does have a funky blue-violet streak on his tongue.) My client's on vacation for another couple of days, but I suspect Arly will be headed to his new home shortly. Meanwhile, inquiries on how you can commission your own special dog (or cat) painting may always come to me.
 
And remember, return clients get 10% off newly booked portraits - so don't be shy, seize the moment and flaunt your collection!


I spent a good amount of time this morning going through my references trying to find a Portuguese Water Dog class I photographed years ago at some dog show. I couldn't find any shots I hadn't already painted (see above Dog-a-Day painting "Bumblebee," from last July, which is available for purchase through Etsy). Alas I am stuck with Porties on my mind (I wonder why?). That creative itch is lingering.
 
So, if any Dog a Day readers have PWD photos they can share with me, I'll squeeze in a Dog-a-Day presidential nod this week  in honor of Bo-Bama. Photos may come to me.
 
And here's a treat - a great write up on the Best Friends network about my Theresa Dog-a-Day paintings from last summer. Theresa will be starring in this week's Dog Town episode (check your local listings for air date and times). I have a few Theresa paintings for sale in my Etsy store. I'll also be listing a special one - a large gallery stretched canvas - on ebay later this week.
 
It's good to be back. I hope that you enjoyed your break from my ramblings and had a wonderful weekend.
Thanks for following my paintings. 
See you tomorrow!
Kim
