This beautiful painting was created from puppy photos sent in for a commission piece, my client was showing me how gorgeous the kelpie dog was as a puppy! I just had to paint the image and asked permission. To me this painting just captures the devotion and attentiveness of the kelpies as pups. Always sitting in or on the most awkward object’s, or squeezing into near impossible spaces! Always choosing to sit on your hat or your boots that you just too off!
The original painting won Peoples Choice out at the John Villiers Art Prize 2025 at Winton. The original painting has SOLD and measured 46cm x 61cm and framed in a raw wood floating frame. So if you love red kelpie dogs here is your perfect gift!
