Art Competition Results

Wow the weeks are whizzing by, we are definitely in the ‘business end’ of the year! I did actually manage to get my things together and enter some of my work in a show last weekend. This was only the fourth show I have entered and clearly I didn’t learn from the previous experiences of farming at the last minute as I was matting and framing until 2.00am on the morning they were to be delivered!

I am very pleased to say that I did quite well, one first and two seconds – and I have to be a proud mum and brag that my 12 year old was awarded a first for her graphite drawing of a marguay and first and second awards for her two sculptured dragons in modelling clay.

My oil painting of a Ringtail lemur “Midnight in Madagascar” was awarded first place in the ‘Animals and Birds – any medium category’:

My charcoal painting of German Shepherd Dog “Noble” was awarded second place in the

‘Drawing – Any Subject category’.

“Noble” is also for sale as part of the Canine Art Guild’s Helping Paws exhibition. To view a better image and purchasing information please visit the blog post for this German Shepherd Dog painting. Part proceeds from the sale of “Noble” will be donated to the Animal Protection Society.

My pastel portrait of the pomeranian “Peaches and Cream” was awarded second place in the

‘Pastel – Any Subject’ category

(the painting on the right of the dog chasing the hose water was the first place winner).

“Peaches and Cream” is for sale as part of the Canine Art Guild’s Helping Paws Exhibition. Click to view a better image and purchase information of this Pomeranian painting, part proceeds of the sale of this art will be donated to K9 Rescue, Mandurah.

Thanks for looking at my art, and please don’t forget to vote for your favorite artwork in the Canine Art Guild’s Helping Paws exhibition – the animal rescue group supported by the artist who is voted Peoples Choice at the end of the exhibition will receive a cash donation from the Canine Art Guild!

Dog Paintings Video

admin — Sun, 12 Oct 2008 07:05:04 +0000

This morning I thought that I would use a selection of my dog paintings and make a compilation video to post on my youtube account. I’m not sure why I expected that it would be a quick and simple thing to do (admittedly finding royalty free public domain music was the most time consuming), and thanks to the technical know-how of my 12 year old, here is the finished video!

There is actually one or two that I havn’t listed on this blog yet, let me know if you can pick them out!

Cheers

Thanks for visiting Dogpaintings.com.au, my blog for my series of dog art!

This blog is currently under construction, so please excuse the dust while I move in and get settled. I hope to have everything ready and other projects and commitments finalized in order to start the Dog Paintings project in September/October, but if you are keen, please feel free to submit your favourite dog photos now and read about the Dog Paintings series in the menu at the left of your screen.

The Galleries featuring my Dog Art will be ready soon for easy viewing (featuring both commissioned work and the dog paintings project gallery), but in the meantime, you can view examples of my dog breed art, pet portrait commissions, wildlife art and photography on my online portfolio at www.michellewrighton.com

Two new dog breed portraits have now been added to the Dogs gallery, a Shiba Inu and another Shar-Pei (I just can’t resist wrinkles!). Both of these are color pencil/acrylic on drafting film.
