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.

Lexus

"Lexus," 4" x 8", Weimereiner portrait in acrylic on canvasboard, $249. Inquiries may come to me.
 
Lexus is the latest addition to my Canines & Cars series of paintings. This particular theme has been well received and the paintings I share always generate a great story or two, excellent reminesces of road trips, errand running, and good times. (PS I'm open to reviewing any photos you would like to send for consideration of inclusion in this series of paintings! Send them toksantini@turtledovedesigns.com )
 
Tomorrow evening is the opening of the Art & Automobiles exhibition at Starkweather Gallery in Romeo, Michigan. On Saturday, Starkweather is continuing the celebration with a block party, accenting the artwork with a classic cars show, some excellent tunes and good grub.
 
I'll be there both days, just hanging and sipping wine tomorrow night, and doing a book signing on Saturday in the Carriage House behind the gallery. On Saturday I'll also bring along some Dog-a-Day paintings and my camera, so if you care to road trip it with your four legged friend, we can try to shoot some reference photos and discuss a concept for your own special painting, with or without a vehicle.
 
If you are unable to attend either event, don't despair - you are always welcome to share your thoughts and photos with me via email.
 
Thanks as always for sharing my artwork.
Kim
