It has definitely been a cat week here at Mrs. Sizzle and this is a favorite painting of mine by my friend, David Konigsberg. He has a show called, "Nigh Season", that opens this evening in Larchmont at Kenise Barnes Fine Art on Palmer Avenue. The opening this evening for the artist is from 6:30-8:30 pm. Crawl over to meet the artist!
This wonderful artist has drawn dogs of all shapes and sizes. Here he presents Mrs. Sizzle with his latest commissions on paper that are not to be missed. Get your dog in line for his own custom portrait session!
"Even while I was enjoying a 20-odd year stint as a travel writer, features journalist and magazine editor, I was always looking around for a valid reason to hang out with dogs all day. In 2012, I started indulging my hankering to paint, and I found that as I progressed, my subject matter became more and more canine – in a wry, not-too-serious way. I was hooked on the many expressions of every pooch I came across. Dog lovers responded by smiling, and Hangdog was born. It’s now an online shop selling fine art prints, stationery and textiles with an ironic, light hearted, doggish bent." - Megan Anderson
So this week's New Yorker cover is so very #mrssizzle, no? I LOVED it and had to meet the man behind the art, Mark Ulriksen. This is what he had to say about dogs, "I love them because they love us so profoundly and unconditionally. And they help us humans try to live up to the high pedestals they naturally put us on."
