Woman and Terrier, 1963
Canadian icon Alex Colville died on Tuesday at his home in Wolfville, Nova Scotia. He was 92. In a 2003 interview Colville told The Chronicle Herald:
"My family has been my principle interest - including dogs - and so all that has been a part of my work."
He is one of my favorite artists I have ever featured on Dog Art Today.
