Heidi Britt

Heidi Britt painted dogs, lots of them, on canvas, their ears and tails caught in loose, energetic brushstrokes. In Malerei, Dog art, a wiry terrier leaps mid-air, tongue out, against a scraped-back background the color of sun-bleached concrete. These aren’t pedigree portraits; the dogs look like they’ve just bolted out of a back alley or a kitchen door, all scruff and curiosity.

The pack runs right up to the edge of the frame, daring you to step in. Want to see another one bounding across the canvas? Tap Malerei, Dog art to follow its path.
