Artists Of Texas Contemporary Paintings and Art

Oil Painting of Prissy, a Pretty Dog PRISSY oil on canvas panel copyright V. Bridges Hoyt 2009 Looking Back at a Daily Painting of Prissy Dog I came across this painting as I was cleaning out some image files. This was painted in 2009 when I was into completion of a painting a day. At the time I was turning out paintings at a fast pace and I barely had time to look at and critique a painting before it was listed and sold. When I stumbled across the painting of Prissy, I smiled. The painting was much prettier than I remembered it. Sometimes we need to slow down and observe what we are doing, not hurry the paintings out the door. I would have enjoyed having Prissy hanging on my own gallery wall for a few months, but the painting of Prissy went to a good home in Kansas, and for that I am glad.

I donated the first run artist's proof, signed for the occasion. I was surprised with a nice article about me and my paintings and published in a tri-county newspaper, The Messenger. Totally surprised, and appreciative! The original painting, oil on linen-wrapped board, was painted entirely with a palette knife and was sold soon after completion. The 9x12 inch print of the Historic First Christian Church building also is available online. Twenty-percent of the print sale profits will be donated to the building maintenance fund.
