THE YEAR OF THE DOG ...and one mighty Cat
THE YEAR OF THE DOG ...and one mighty Cat
Coming Soon — Just in Time for the Holidays!
A Limited Fine Art Studio Release
Four years ago I took a year-long hiatus from painting semi-abstract oil landscapes to immerse myself in a deeply personal project: painting seventeen dog portraits and one very independent feral tiger of a cat in just fifty-two weeks. The result is a breathtaking, emotional, and truly humbling collection celebrating the profound bond we share with our non-human companions.

This premium 48-page, 8" x 10" softcover companion book features:
- Vibrant Fine Art Reproductions: High-fidelity printing on heavy-weight trade paper that beautifully preserves the rich values, light source structures, and raw brushstroke textures of the original oil canvases.
- Heartwarming Stories: Personal narratives detailing the unique histories, quirks, and larger-than-life personalities of each beloved companion—from Cooper the alert French Bulldog to Sammy the gentle English Mastiff.
- "From the Easel" Insights: Exclusive studio notes for art lovers and collectors exploring the technical application of paint, temperature control, and the historic use of genuine Lead White to bring each portrait to life.
Pre-ordering will open shortly. Check back here or subscribe to the studio newsletter to receive the official launch announcement and secure your copy in time for holiday shipping!
