Dogupations XII: Guard Dog




Twelfth in the groundbreaking series of dogupation paintings. Dogs doing the kind of jobs cats just won't do. In his tunic and bearskin the stoic and loyal Queen's Guard Dog protects the dim and flighty Royal Family. Nothing distracts the Grenadier from his duties (save the occasional squirrel).

Dogupations X: Dog Pound


Babalu Aye!


Tenth in the groundbreaking new series of dogupation paintings: dogs providing vital services--the kinds of jobs cats just won't do. Where do you turn when you need some heavily orchestrated Afro-Cuban music for your nightclub? To a conga pounding dog, that's where.

Playing Possum!


Don't be deceived by their unimpressive facade. Opossums are quietly implementing their top secret plans to take over the WORLD! Through their unspecialized biology, flexible diet and reproductive strategy the OMNIVEROUS marsupials have steadily increased their habitat into diverse locations and conditions. Lulled into a false sense of superiority and security humans have allowed the Didelphimophia to move North and West. Possums possess a robust immune system and are immune to the venom of snakes! Opossums have a short gestation period of 14 days and produce large litters. How can they be stopped?
