I have two 36”x36” canvases remaining for the upcoming Big Dogs: Large Stories show at Vine Arts Mlps in July.

I have a mental image brewing that involves a dog or dogs and chickens. Anyone have a best dog buddy who has a special relationship with chickens?

Or other animals? (Cows,Sheep
Goats…)

I’m primarily creating paintings that will have forever homes (special incentive offer for participants) after the exhibit closes in August. If you have a chicken loving dog and want a big painting drop me a DM!

Great news! Big Dogs 2.0 will be exhibiting at the newly renovated gallery at Vine Arts Center in Minneapolis in July. This show was postponed due to Covid, followed by a gallery fire. Now it's rescheduled and revitalizing the project and looking for 5 new subjects to paint on (not so big, but still pretty big) 36"x36" canvases.

I'll be partnering with RAGOM (Rescue a Golden of the Midwest) for the show and am looking to focus on rescues.

If you have a beloved rescue with an incredible story you'd like to tell, contact me.
While not mandatory, I would love for these paintings to go to their forever homes after the exhibit. I will provide a nice incentive for anyone interested in participating in this way.
DM me 🙂 and I'll curate the lucky 5 from the responses.

Working on these wings today for Expressions Dance Studio. This mural will eventually also host a flexibility challenge.

I will miss hanging out with Penelope at Mystic Sundog, but I am so happy to see her hanging at Wildcrafted Acupuncture just a hop skip and a jump away. It was so great hanging out with her for awhile. Thanks Gabi Masek for sharing this magnificent four legged's countenance and story with the world as part of the pack.

P E N E L O P E! 🐶 Even though the cozy comfy waiting area is ‘off limits’ we can all still enjoy this amazing painting by !! This portrait of Penelope was done as one in Jennifer’s Big Dog series and I am so so so happy to hang it in the clinic! This colorful and vibrant work of art sure brightens the place up!! ❤️🧡💛💚💜🖤🤍🤎 Also! The clinic is closed for the next 2 days, will be open Saturday and Monday then closed again for 10 days so I may get some behind the scenes work done and some much needed rest! Thank you all for helping make 2020 a wonderful year here and being fluid, resilient and supportive as we all learned together how to navigate the challenges. Much love + gratitude!

I’m crazy about my hound dog, and we’ve suddenly been given this singular time to go through every moment of his old age together.

Big Dogs lost another pack member on October 1, 2020. Jojo the Wire haired Pointing Griffon said goodbye to her humans. She lived a long full life and I will surely miss seeing her amble around the neighborhood with her loving owners. Rest in peace dear , Jojo. I know I am not the only one who loved you.

Come by Mystic Sundog to see this piece in person. (Her humans Jim and Nina commissioned a smaller version for home)
