In My Dog Era

The best way I know to understand something is to practice it.

That’s the challenge I have taken on for my November collection.

I love the dogs I paint, but I want to understand why I love them.

Something about them is whimsical…

My dog Rudy isn’t nearly as long and elegant as these dogs.

I think my goal with these is actually to not capture the likeness of any particular dog, but more a challenge to capture the joy a dog feels in the chase.

As I am working on a new collection of original pieces that feature man's best friend, I am also including a new element in the mix. 

Months ago, I had the idea to start including apparel designs as part of my collections. 

Here is a sneak peek of the first design: 

 Adam Trest 3 Stacked Dog Apparel

 

 

As we are getting started with including this line of apparel, we'll offer a variety of colors and sizes of t-shirts and sweatshirts with the 3 stacked dogs look, as well as a canvas tote bag. 

Where my collection release date is later this year, you can order your 3 Dogs t-shirt, sweatshirt, or canvas bag as early as November 1, 2023. 

Where Can I Order The Shirt?

Of digging down deep to uncover why such a simple figure brings such mystery, intrigue, and delight.

Great idea Adam! Looking forward to this wonderful wearable art and hope it grows into other parts of your collection. Tote bags would great AND for myself and fellow quilters. Who wouldn’t like a fabulous quilting panel? Don’t forget the plus & tall sizes. Congratulations on another part of your success! Thanks for sharing.
