Muddy Waters 




He's the best yellow dog around.


  And now the trilogy is complete.

HISTORY:

Last Fall, when rain was on the pavement, I gently dragged my boyfriend to a 'Paint Your Pet' night at The Loaded Brush.     That resulted in these.  We get total joy out of them.

---

Mike was not initially amped up for this outing because he's "not an artist".   
I say, "Yeah, right!"  This is his.  Wow! 

Muddy Waters: Weathering The Storm (2013)

Notes:
The emotion conveyed in this piece is that of worry.   A fear of the unknown...or rain, a cool breeze, fireworks, certain smells...and mail.  And reflections. In this particular scenario there is a storm brewing.

Here is my initial version.

Muddy Waters: Is That For Me? (2013)

Notes:
The focus of this piece is curiosity.  And need.  A need to simply know.   To know where you are going or if you are holding something that could be for a dog.  You're by the microwave.  Are those treats on your plate?  How 'bout that bag?   Is there a toy or bacon in there?

We have enjoyed both of these paintings so much.   Still, we've known the series could never be complete without a third representation.   Of the other side.  

And today, 08/05/2014,  this happened:

Muddy Waters: Have A Nice Day Or Else (2014)

Notes:
None.   We don't bring up old stuff in this household.    Good dog.

In conclusion...let's see, I guess go squeeze your pets!  
Oh, and make something fun today!  Even if it kind of sucks.  Seriously, go do it!

The month of August may be hit and/or miss on the blog frequency...but I've got a ton of new art completed and on the way.   

I also bought a piece of Chris Haberman art last week!   I can't pick it up for a few more weeks but I can't wait to share.  

As always, send me an email or leave comment below!   Anything you want to see happen?   amymclainart@gmail.com
