I loved the atypical dimensions of this panel, and wanted to come up with a design that would work well in the long narrow rectangular shape. It didn't take long to think of Beardie puppies running en masse! Though it's usual to stick with 3, and the 'rules' suggest odd numbers work best in terms of subjects in a painting, I decided there had to be 4 of them so they could show off the four colours Beardies come in - black, brown, blue and fawn. Hmmm, does my bias show with the brown pup leading the way? :-) In order for the pups to truly stand out I opted for a solid black background rather than putting them in a scene. I feel the solid background and the hard edges on the pups gives a nice balance between a realistic portrait and a more 'artsy' look.
This is a somewhat large painting, measuring 12" high x 24" wide, and is on gallery panel which has a depth of 1 1/2". The edges are painted black as well, and the piece needs no framing. It comes ready to hang. The painting has been given several coats of a UV protective gloss varnish.
This piece is for sale - $350, plus shipping.
