15% Off Art Prints for Pet Lovers
The dog days of summer are upon us, as they say -- it was 90 F yesterday, and temperatures are supposed to keep on climbing. How are your pets holding up, if you have any? Mine are braving the heat beautifully, as you can see below:
From left to right, there's MuShu (8 years old), D'Artagnon (10), Sascha (10 1/2) and Raichu (4). They're all from local shelters, and they enrich our lives so much!
Here at the ArtSelect office, we all figured, what better way to honor our favorite pooches and pets than by having a special Dog Days of Summer Sale? It's on now, so if you're a pet lover in the market for new animal art, check it out! We're offering 15% off all sorts of adorable images, like this one:
Isn't he too much? Baseball is America's summer pastime, but it looks like this little guy has run off with the ball. This image is a great shot for summer, and a year-round favorite for dog-lovers, especially bully-breed fans. Here's another fun pooch shot. A "pugshot," as it were:
Although this print makes pugs look like tough customers, pugs are actually the most companionable animals around! They're bred specifically to be companion animals, and they excel at it. Pugs are the epitome of unconditional love, and who couldn't use a little of that? In my house, I can't go anywhere that my lovable pugs won't follow me -- when they're awake, that is! Pugs are great snoozers.
Let's not forget our feline friends. Here's another great image from our sale collection:
I love the simplicity of this piece. Both color and composition are understated, and yet so much is expressed. There's nothing like the quiet comfort of a cat curled up on one's lap, is there?
The Goldfish Bowl
By William Stewart MacGeorge
It's just so lush and beautiful, isn't it? My husband is the aquarium enthusiast in our family and has a tank filled with all sorts of colorful fish.
In any case, whether your favorite pet is a dog, cat, rabbit, fish or bird, I'm sure our Dog Days of Summer collection has the perfect art print to honor him or her. Unless, of course, you own an iguana or a shark or something!
All the best, and see you next week!
