Studio Dogs

This portrait of 18 working artists, and the dogs who keep them company, while keeping them inspired is a moving testimonial to both the creative spirit and to the bond between humans and the animals they love.For artists dogs form, in many ways, the perfect support network because they are the silent witness to a creator's most exposed states, accepting unconditionally artistic despair as well as elation.The curious cock of the head, the gentle contented snoring, or even the cheerful wag of a tail all send much appreciated, non-verbal messages of support, encouragement, and, most of all, understanding.An elegant labour of love, this book offers thanks for that unique bond.
