I belong to the
Canine Art Guild, a wonderful group of "dog" artists. Each year,due to the hard work of a number of members, the CAG puts together an online exhibition entitled "Helping Paws" where participating artists donate work and pledges a % of the sale of that work to a specified Animal Charity.
I submitted two pieces this year and, although the show does not go live until December 15th, I wanted to post the news in case anyone is looking for a great Christmas gift that gives in two ways :-)
"What's Up Dach?" and "Soulful" were accepted into the 2010 Art Show at the Dog Show earlier this year, with Soulful winning a Fourth Place Award in the Drawing Category.
