Dog Show: McClintock is back with more
Artist Robert McClintock is celebrating the launch of “DOGS THAT I KNOW, Part 3,” the latest additions to his series on Charm City canines, with a reception at his Fells Point gallery on Thursday, May 7.
The public is invited from 5 to 9 p.m.
The evening will feature art, food and entertainment, with a portion of the proceeds donated to Recycled Love, the Baltimore-based rescue organization. Admission is free.
“They have one mission in life which is to make humans smile, ” McClintock says of dogs. “All they ask in return is to be loved.” One of McClintock’s most treasured portraits featured at the show is of “Jasmine” (above), a pup rescued from convicted dogfighter Michael Vick and now living safely with her adopted family in Baltimore.
“DOGS THAT I KNOW” continues to be McClintock’s most popular series, featuring pooches of every shape and size, mixed breeds and mutts. Select pieces are being published and sold internationally by New World Graphics in Richmond, Va.
Gallery visitors attending the opening will be offered a chance to enter a drawing to win a selected work from the artist’s collection.
The gallery is at 1809 Thames Street in Fells Point.
