Everything You Need To Know About Doggie Art

Nowadays, the prized art of many homes is actually doggie art, featuring works of the Masters or simply photo mugs of pet pooches. One mother daughter pair from Memphis, Tennessee, admired their dogs so much that they hired a renowned pastel artist to render portraits of them. Two of the beloved pooches have been lost, and they remember them in these rather expensive family photos. Never admit in their presence that the dogs all look alike to you.

Last year she and her mother had their two current dogs, Kelly Rae, a cockapoo puppy, and Miss Manners, a Lhasa apso, portrayed together. On the one hand, Kelly is quite probing, and on the other Miss Manners keeps her distance. That just about covers it. The “in crowd” of the art scene is beginning to see the true worth of doggie art. Whereas a good animal portrait cost $2,500 ten years ago, today the same would sell for $10,000, said a Manhattan gallery owner and expert in 19th century animal art. The leading animalier collected an all time high of $577,000 for one portrait of a Newfoundland named Neptune.

She does not discriminate against locally commissioned pet projects, even though her usual fare is fine animal art. The whole nation has become engrossed with pet paintings, all of which she considers serious art. Some breeds require commissioning a new portrait, as they look nothing like their ancestors. Artists who paint pets usually work from photos, which they may take themselves and they frequently must do alterations to suit very particular patrons. A Germantown, Tennessee water colorist, who does mainly landscapes, once had to redo a portrait of two shaggy dogs because she failed to capture that doggy twinkle in their eyes because they could hardly see their eyes. In another experience, a patron had no complaints with a portrait of his dachshund that passed away, in five poses. Another water colorist, based in Eads, Tennessee, has had a 13 year successful run of painting houses and pets. Though her repertoire does include cats, fish, and a frog, she paints mostly dogs and horses. The client’s reaction is written on his face, especially when the painting is of a deceased pet. Sobs may escape some owners.
