Original artwork description:
Mixed media on canvas.
I’m a bit obsessed with the theme of the black dog - a contemporary analogy for depression. I say contemporary, Winston Churchill referred to his black dog during moments of melancholy, so not that new. However, it is a step away from the traditional English Folklore of the Black Dog being the harborer of death and general bad things. I feel this is an interesting subject that so many people can relate to - I know I can.
Materials used:
Oil paint, spray paint and acrylic
