I don't put many of my animal portraits and drawings on this site because I save them for my portrait website www.ptarlow.com and my Facebook Phyllis Tarlow Portraits page. I'm showing it on this site for a short while because it will be up for sale Wed. - Sat., June 23-26, 2010, during the Art for Animals/Animals in Art fund raiser for Pet Rescue and the Mamaroneck Artists Guild, a co-op gallery I belong to for the last 25 or more years. To get the details see my Events Section.

Animals rank right up there with landscapes as favorite subjects. Most often they are painted or drawn as commissions for people who love their pets or have lost a pet. This vizsla painting came about when I met a lovely woman at a dog show who raises vizslas and trains them for field competitions. This is one of her champions. It is available through www.fineartamerica.com/phyllistarlow as a framed or unframed print.

I have plans for new paintings which will include animals within the landscape.
