This is my dog Sampson. He is a notorious performance artist. His mediums include mud, soil, grime, dry grass cuttings and occasionally watercolor. He prefers quin violet, nontoxic of course.
Sammy passed away suddenly in 2020. We all miss him so much but he lives on in our hearts and stories.

A painting based on Canadian Maud Lewis’ storm door. Maud suffered terribly from rheumatism and poverty. She created constantly. She painted her entire tiny house which is on display at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia. (You can take a virtual tour of it online at the gallery’s site).
