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.

This is Dominic, a Boston Terrier currently being fostered by Midwest Boston Terrier Rescue. He is a little prince, and a big-time cuddler, typical of the breed. And he’s looking for a forever home. You can see him, along with the other BTs in rescue, at their web site http://www.midwestbtrescue.org/ . (And while he WAS there, I noticed this morning he isn’t on the site any longer – dare I dream that he’s been adopted?!). The rescue covers 4 states, and has an especially responsive and delightful group of foster parents – perhaps reflective of their little 4-legged companions?

Here’s the paintings’ specifics: “Yawn (Dominic),” 6x12, boston terrierpet portrait in acrylic on canvasboard. This piece has been exquisitely framed and displayed in numerous exhibits, including my solo show "Happily Ever Afters" at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary. It is available for $469, with proceeds going to Best Friends and Midwest Boston Terrier Rescue. All inquiries to ksantini@turtledovedesigns.com .

Also, any commissioned dog-a-day portraits of Boston Terriers that have been adopted from the Midwest Boston Terrier Rescue will qualify for 20% contributions back to the group. The same goes for the Friends of Michigan Animal Shelter, who I profiled yesterday with the two cat paintings.

Thanks, as always, for looking.
And for sharing these paintings with friends and family.
See you tomorrow,
Kim
