George Rodrigue
Big Blue Dog, 2001

Mixed media on heavy paper

A frontal blue dog with bright yellow eyes anchors this colorful work by George Rodrigue. Pale blue and white passages define the face and chest, while pink contours and a yellow ground sharpen the figure’s silhouette.

Loose circular marks at the sides and warm-colored circles along the chest bring a playful rhythm to the composition. The direct gaze and upright ears give Rodrigue’s familiar subject an unmistakable presence.
