Mark your calendar, because this is a show you will not want to miss!
Thursday, February 18 at 1PM CST Talk2theAnimals Wisdom Behind the Whiskers Radio will be talking about ‘Animals and Creativity’. Our special guest for this episode is Minneapolis/St. Paul based artist Jessie Marianiello of Stray Dog Arts.
Jessie started her artistic career doing portraits of people. She enjoyed seeing how the portraits came to life under her paint brush. One day, while shoveling snow, Jessie asked herself what made her the happiest. The answer, which she says was an easy one, was dogs and art. Stray Dog Arts was then born.
Jessie says this about her painting:
I paint pet portraits because I have more love for animals than I know what to do. I paint because there is something beautiful to be captured in those transitory moments we share with the pets who have stolen our hearts for good. I paint to tell a story. I paint dogs (and cats and horses) because now I cannot stop.
What do animals have to say about the artistic process? Why does your pet keep reposing him/herself into a pose they like, not the one you had in mind? Listen to Jessie and me as we talk about the creative process when working with animals.
If you can’t make the show live, not to worry, it will be archieved and you will be able to tune in at your convenience.
Harmony,
Janet Roper
