So instead, check out this post about the Landscapes from the Age of Impressionism exhibit that we attended at the North Carolina Museum of Art on Monday.

I was going to submit one dog portrait and one landscape, but the organizer requested more figurative work because most of the entries were landscape and still life. So, Riesling the Wise and Dog Days of Summer were carted off to Blowing Rock late last week. The show runs through November 19.

I’ve decided to show the Riesling portrait, titled “Riesling the Wise” (thanks, Eric) and a landscape I am doing of the Great Arch in Zion National Park. I don’t typically do landscapes, but I didn’t do pets at one point either. I’m committed, so it’s now or never. Progress coming soon.
