Dogs of War

Picture of the Day
Dogs of War
Acrylic on Kodak paper pre-mounted on Foamcore, 2' x 2'

A limited number of 18"x 18" giclee reproductions of this painting
are available for $200 each, signed and numbered.

Background on this original painting: I'd watched a very powerful video about the training of dogs used for war, not as attack animals but for protecting troops, following trails, warning of impending attack. In WW2 and Korean War many dogs served with our armed forces. The documentary included interviews with veterans who told stories of the service dogs who saved soldiers' lives, dogs who gave their lives for the best friends, and the dogs that had to be left behind when the war ended. This picture attempts to capture the haunted feeling I was left with as I reflected on these dogs of war.
