Cold dog (2026) Original Mixed-media Painting by Gio Manveli

2 x 2 x 2cm (framed)

£3,026.28

This one was painted with the whole body.
120×120 means big brushes, full arm movements, weight shifting foot to foot. You don't paint a canvas this size from the wrist — you dance with it. Every stroke is a commitment. There's no hiding at this scale, and I didn't want to.
He's skating. Hair flying. Holding a small white dog like it's the most precious thing on ice. A Heineken cap on his chest, a Starbucks lid for an eye, a Coca-Cola cap for the other. Found on the street, pressed into paint, permanent now.
The red thread is back — same one that runs through the whole collection. Connecting these three figures across three canvases whether they know it or not.
This is the final painting of the D.O.G.s Winter Edition. Three pieces, one collection, one thread. When it's gone, it's gone — there is no fourth.
The found objects are real and original to this canvas. No print will ever carry them.

Materials used:

acrylics, oil sticks, found objects

About
I create art because I am fascinated by the small, ordinary moments we usually ignore. A dog waiting in a window. A messy table after dinner. A strange little scene... Read more
