Bad Taxidermy Fox
12×12 Acrylic/Oil on Canvas
2017-12
This is the tenth in the red fox series, attempting to work in a different style that I have when I have completed pet portrait paintings and other commissions. I thought I would love to paint a series of foxes because they are interesting, solitary creatures that seem to have similar personalities with cats (just like me). My love for foxes was influenced decades ago by the Disney movie, The Fox and The Hound, and through a couple life experiences while growing up in Northern British Columbia, Canada. One of a kind painting.

07-2017
We all love Corgi butts, and their personalities are quirky and goofy. I wanted to try to capture that using my bright coloured pop art style.

Pop Art Golden Retriever Puppy
11 x 14 x 1.375in Oil on Canvas
2017-04
I decided to begin offering a new style of pet portrait paintings aside from the realistic style that I have made for people over the last 8 years. This painting is a study that attempts a different and punchier colour palette as well as less detail work with more of an abstracted visual from an image.
Over the past few years, I started to time lapse film myself painting, the original Youtube video of me creating this painting can be found here: https://youtu.be/MnEwuSpnB6c
The eighth painting in a series of fox paintings I have been working on. I am experimenting with different styles while painting this series. I have decided to use geometric and sharper abstract shapes to create the colour layers in this painting again. I enjoy the effect that it creates.
