  • Amy Bogard’s Daily Dogs

    If you're snowbound, done with all your shopping, and/or bored with vacation already, I have a treat for you, Amy Bogard's Daily Dogs.  Amy is one of those wildly inspiring artists who uses her own creativity to jump start her own creativity.  

    Recently, she's been revving up, artistically speaking, by doodling whichever of her three dogs, Caskie, Iris, or River, is at her feet.   Beyond the charming immediacy of the works, is her presentation of them on the Web.  Visiting her website is like surreptitiously reading someone's journal.  In fact, her website is an artwork in and of itself, like a piece of interactive dog art about dog art, a truly meta-dog-art experience.  Click here to enjoy.

    One of my favorite quotes from Amy's blog, "I love spending studio days with the dogs. It’s really the best of both worlds; cozy companionship coupled with the healing balm of solitude."

    Me too!
