For almost a year now I've been working on establishing a new artists' group just for us dog painters.
It all started as a discussion on the Equine Art Guild forum between a number of artists who regularly painted dogs. We were moaning and groaning about there not really being a place to share ideas or network about all things related to painting canines.
Enough of us stepped forward and started making notes. Those notes became To-Do lists. Those To-Do lists are getting completed. And now we have the CAG, or Canine Art Guild.
Check us out: Canine Art Guild
Our membership is growing. We have a great cross-section of artists and styles.
And if things continue as they have been, our community will continue to grow and amaze.
Today I worked on compiling a canine resources guide that will be published on the Canine Art Guild website (for members' only viewing). This listing will be all encompassing, from art supplies to framing to website development to the history of pet portraiture.
It was one of the last things on my list.
The next one will be recruiting new members (wanna join?) and identifying and establishing strong links to add to the site.
But tomorrow I get to paint.
