BT Raspberry

My name is Kathi Peters and I paint.

A few days , well many more than a few days ago........I did this 6 x8" casein of a Boston Terrier who was blowing a raspberry at the camera. This little guy is a spitting-image of the actor/comedian Marty Feldman. "Frankie" has a wall eye....and every time I look at Frankie's photo, I see Mr. Feldman. I have some other shots of dear Frankie that I will be doing in the near future....AND I finished a small casein of an Italian Greyhound. This is as close to Italy as I will get this week!
These two works and some other new works are finally on my website for viewing. Or you can see my new works and life on my personal blog.

And this all has happened between shoveling snow, shoveling horse stalls and walking the dog here in Morrill, Maine.....

AND

Last week I sent out caseins and watercolors to a new Gallery that I am with in Lexington , KY. Gallery B is having a benefit show called "It's Raining Cats and Dogs" and I have several works that will be included in the show. This exhibit opens 15th of February and runs through March 15th.

New To Canine Art Blog - Dawn Secord

It is wonderful be affiliated with the Canine Artists on this blog as well as on the Canine Artists Guild. I have long admired many of the artists included in these sites.

The Gordon Setter in the portrait is named Lexi and this portrait was just recently completed. She was 2 years old when I first photographed her and her owner and I decided to let her grow up for another year and retake her photos. At age three her head had really become refined and her expression is so gentle and loving. It was a good decision to let her finish growing before starting her portrait. The portrait is 12" x 16" and was painted in pastel. Dawn Secord.
