Canine Art Guild Celebrates 5th Year with Online Exhibition


No joke - this April 1st, 2010, the Canine Art Guild (CAG) will “hang” an online exhibition celebrating their five years of existence. Titled “Dog-Gonn It!” the show is entirely made up of artwork that is 5” square.


Canine Art Guild member Catherin McMillan said “For me it was a case of thinking outside the square I usually work in. I've never worked so small before and it was heaps of fun transferring my thoughts to a smaller canvas.”


There are 48 5” x 5” gems created by guild members, viewable 24/7 at www.canineartguild.com/gallery. You'll also find links on this page to archives of the CAG's past online exhibitions.


Canine Art Guild shows are rotated every 3-4 months. This gives members the opportunity to showcase new work within the context of other canine and animal-centric artists. For buyers looking for a pet portrait artist or simply to add to their art collection, the Canine Art Guild is a key stop.


Visitors to the “Dog-Gonn It!” exhibition can also cast their vote for People's Choice Award. Cash prizes are awarded to the artists who's work garners the most votes.


CAG artists work in all mediums, e.g. paint, ceramics, pencil, sculpture, photography, and digital art, and hail from all corners of the earth. They share resources, educational experiences and marketing ideas while providing inspiration and support to each other.


The CAG offers members a private discussion forum, a profile page linked to the artist’s website, editorial privileges on the Art With a Bark blog, and participation in regularly scheduled online exhibitions like “Dog-Gonn It!”.


Collectors can browse the CAG website (www.canineartguild.com) by breed grouping, artist’s location, medium, or alphabetically.


The Canine Art Guild plans an ongoing series of exhibitions. The next exhibition, slated for spring 2010, is titled “Here Kitty, Kitty.” Clearly a twist on the expected, which in a way exemplifies all that the CAG stands for. In a tail wagging, tongue lolling, sort of way.
