NOTE: My apologies for posting this out of order. It really came about on September 27th.
I have a new painting idea that I need to request your help with. Some of you might recall my musings about working more from actual items, and incorporating paintings of dog ephemera into the dog-a-day project. Well, I want to take that one step further.
I would like to do a still life painting of dog tags, actually a series of paintings of dog tags, titled simply “Memories.”
A handful on a tablecloth.
One lying forgotten in an overgrown garden.
A few hanging from an old collar on a hook.
An old bell jar ½ full.
A montage of them on a flat surface.
My brain keeps spinning with the idea. The only problem? I just have a few tags myself.
This is where you come in.
IF you can part with your tags – whether they be id ones, or old licenses, or rabies tags – whatever the case – I would be honored to add them to my collection, and capture them in paint.
I cannot return them, sadly – I’m not certain how I could keep track of which went to whom – but I do promise you that they will be cherished. And painted. And shared.
Tags can come to me at 346 N Anderson, Lake Orion, MI 48362.
Thanks, as always, for your support of my work.
And for sharing these paintings (and ideas) with friends and family,
Kim
