I was inspired to make this art piece about a delightful boston terrier named Tyson who comes to my work. He is a smart, funny little dog that loves to great visitors and help his mom at work. He is so well behaved and friendly that he makes everyone’s day more fun.
The little blue flower is a 3D resin dahlia cabochon.
I started by taking a picture of Tyson. This was not easy to do since he doesn’t stop moving. After painting a background and printing out my piece- I coated it with a layer of Triple Thick for a hard, glossy look. I mounted it on a backsplash tile with a slight metallic finish to give the edge some bling. I found these cool easel backs that allow you to hang the work or let it stand like a photo frame. The final size is 4″x4″. I added a Pickadoo Design sticker and packaged it up in a cello bag then it was ready to give.
