I received a nice note from Argentinian artist Sebastiàn Chillemi with 11 of his dog paintings attached. All of them were wonderful, but these are my favorites. I am especially drawn to the first one. The little guy reminds me of John Singer Sargent's Pointy, a portrait I consider one of the best dog art works of all time.
Visit Sebastiàn Chillemi's blog to see more. His non-dog subjects are exquisite too.
