Canvassed K-9’s

October 17, 2008

Dana Hawk has an unusual pedigree. With degrees in Cell & Molecular Biology and Physical Therapy, one would hardly guess that her work with a paintbrush, and not a microscope, is what has earned her more awards than “Best of Show” at Westminster! As a self-trained artist, Dana paints an array of subjects, but it is her pooch portraits that take first prize!

Ranging in size from 11x14 to 48x48, Hawk creates masterpieces that show each mutt’s unique and loveable character. Gazing at her work, you begin to see the true meaning behind the phrase “man’s best friend”. Whether you have an only-pup, a couple of K-9’s or a Brady-bunch of critters, Hawk will work with your furry family to create the perfect piece.

Dana’s prices begin at $600 for a single subject and $500 for each additional dog. Many of Hawk’s pieces can be purchased, but why not commission your very own portrait? After all, no pup has quite the same floppy ears, soulful eyes or speckled coat. And Hawk is a virtuoso when it comes to capturing those traits.

Take an online tour of her gallery to soak in this amazing body of work or get the mutt right to the Master and commission a piece of your own!
