About The Artwork

This piece is inspired by Paul Gauguin's painting, The Spirit of the Dead Watching. First, I photographed myself with my dog and then painted over the print in acrylic. While, Gauguin's painting incorporated terror, and a double entendre of who's watching who, I created this image without a fear-intended theme. Instead, the dog is the all knowing, the omnipresent, the protector. Furthermore, I chose to paint over the photograph to play with the idea of reality versus non-reality.
