Amazing Dog Inspired Art

Mutz, the Urban UnderdogDon’t you love seeing art about our furkids? I do and I especially love to hear about new artists who have the Dogster vision. Nathan “Nate Dawg” James is one of these artists. I started getting messages about him last week and finally got around to checking him out. Wow! Here’s what one Dogster said:

I really love the Mutz; The Urban Underdog that is with the Art Unleashed event out of North Carolina! What a witty character. I’m in New York and plan on visiting this great celebration!! Thank you for the information! I love your blog.

Thank you Judith and Sarah for writing in and letting us know about James‘ work. Besides giving artistic birth to new canine heroes, James also paints pet portraits in his own powerful style.
